This paper describes an approach to designing self-healing components for robust,
concurrent and distributed software architecture. A self-healing component is able to detect …

With the increasing importance of reliability in business and industrial IT systems, new
techniques for architecture-based software reliability prediction are becoming an integral …

This paper describes an approach to selfreconfiguration, which is part of a self-healing
mechanism against anomalous objects, of a system prior to repairing anomalies of objects …

This paper proposes a novel heterogeneous software architecture GFTSA (Generic Fault
Tolerant Software Architecture) which can guide the development of safety critical distributed …

This paper describes the self-healing mechanism for components in reliable systems. Each
component in a self-healing system is designed as a layered architecture, structured with the …

This paper considers the problem of integrating commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software
components into systems with high dependability requirements. These components, by their …

The ever-increasing complexity of software systems makes it progressively more difficult to
provide dependability guarantees for such systems, especially when they are deployed in …

In recent years, various approaches combining software architectures and exception
handling have been proposed for increasing the dependability of software systems. This …

Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software components are built to be used as black boxes
that cannot be modified. The specific context in which these COTS components are …

Component-based software systems built out of reusable software components are being
used in a wide range of applications which have high dependability requirements. In order …
