Transient Fault Recovery in the Distributed Computer Network.

Abstract

This paper describes a set of algorithms proposed for recovery from hardware and software failure in a distributed computer network. These algorithms are designed so that, in most cases of temporary failure in a processor, storage medium or input/output device, the remaining components elsewhere in the network continue to function. When the failure is repaired the system automatically reconfigures itself to include the failed component. (Author)
