Fault Tolerant Multiprocessing and Development of Tools

Abstract

Originally, Pennsylvania State University was to develop a conceptual framework for long life, fault tolerant, high performance space based computing system(s) for battle management. However, due to the reduced funding and redirection of the contract, Pennsylvania State University concentrated their research into the development of software tools. Pennsylvania State University has developed a hypercube performance model, an analytical simulation model for the butterfly network, a statistical code simulation, fault diagnosis for fault tolerant multistage networks, and algebraic coding techniques for distributed systems error control. This final report is an executive summary of all the work performed under this contract and summarizes twenty volumes of reports that were written by Pennsylvania State University. Keywords: Computer architecture, VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration), Algorithm mapping.
