Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to single out and generalize about the essential features and properties of synchronization and to argue in favour of the idea of designing and developing fault tolerance for distributed computer system on the basis of a multilevel synchronization system. We propose to consider designing and developing a hierarchical system of synchronizing redundant components in these systems the first and foremost stage in providing fault tolerance in application systems. The general peculiarities of using synchronization system for this end are considered.
