Previously, he held positions with the Technion---Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, the University of California at Berkeley, the University of Southern California, Los Angeles and the University of California, Santa Barbara. He has been a consultant to several companies, including Analog Devices, AMD, Digital Equipment Corp., IBM, Intel, and National Semiconductors. His research interests include fault-tolerant computing, cyber-physical systems, computer architecture, computer arithmetic, and secure cryptographic systems. He has over 300 publications in refereed journals and conferences and served as general chair, program committee chair and program committee member for numerous conferences Klappentext There are many applications in which the reliability of the overall system must be far higher than the reliability of its individual components. In such cases, designers devise mechanisms and architectures that allow the system to either completely mask the effects of a component failure or recover from it so quickly that the application is not seriously affected. This is the work of fault-tolerant designers and their work is increasingly important and complex not only because of the increasing number of mission critical" applications, but also because the diminishing reliability of hardware means that even systems for non-critical applications will need to be designed with fault-tolerance in mind. Reflects the challenges faced by designers of fault-tolerant systems. This book addresses fault tolerance design with a systems approach to both hardware and software. It is suitable for students, designers and architects of high performance processors.
