Since  redundancy is expensive and counter-intuitive to the traditional  notion of system design, the book focuses on resource-efficient  methodologies that avoid excessive use of redundancy by exploiting the  algorithmic\/dynamic structure of a particular combinational or dynamic  system. \u003cbr\u003e  The first part of \u003cem\u003eCoding Approaches to Fault Tolerance in\u003c\/em\u003e  \u003cem\u003eCombinational and Dynamic Systems\u003c\/em\u003e focuses on fault-tolerant  combinational systems providing a review of von Neumann's classical  work on Probabilistic Logics (including some more recent work on noisy  gates) and describing the use of arithmetic coding and algorithm-based  fault-tolerant schemes in algebraic settings. The second part of the  book focuses on fault tolerance in dynamic systems. \u003cem\u003eCoding  Approaches\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eto Fault Tolerance in Combinational and Dynamic  Systems\u003c\/em\u003e also discusses how, in a dynamic system setting, one can  relax the traditional assumption that the error-correcting mechanism  is fault-free by using distributed error correcting mechanisms. The  final chapter presents a methodology for fault diagnosis in discrete  event systems that are described by Petri net models; coding  techniques are used to quickly detect and identify failures. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cstrong\u003eFrom the Foreword\u003c\/strong\u003e: \"Hadjicostis has significantly expanded the  setting to processes occurring in more general algebraic and dynamic  systems... The book responds to the growing need to handle faults in  complex digital chips and complex networked systems, and to consider  the effects of faults at the design stage rather than afterwards.\"  \u003cbr\u003e  George Verghese, Massachusetts Institute of Technology\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eCoding Approaches to Fault Tolerance in Combinational and  Dynamic\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eSystems\u003c\/em\u003e will be of interest to both researchers and  practitioners in the area of fault tolerance, systems design and  control.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2001-11-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792376248\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-0853-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 189\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44806309773452,"sku":"9780792376248","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792376248.jpg?v=1775009530","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792376248","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
