Traditional Byzantine Quorum systems that tolerate Byzantine failures by using replication have two main limitations: low space-efficiency and static quorum variables. We propose an Erasure-code Byzantine Fault-tolerance Quorum that can provide high reliability with far lower storage overhead than replication by adopting erasure code as redundancy scheme. Through read/write operations of clients and diagnose operation of supervisor, our Quorum system can detect Byzantine nodes, and dynamically adjust system size and fault threshold. Simulation results show that our method improves performance for the Quorum with relatively small quorums.展开更多

The norm bounded disturbances which are composed of interactive forces among adjacent carriages and basis running resistances are rearranged by the fuzzy linearity technique. The modeled disturbances described as an exogenous system are compensated for by a disturbance observer. Moreover, a sliding mode surface is constructed, which can transform the stabilization problem of position and velocity into the stabilization problem of position errors and velocity errors, i.e., the tracking problem of position and velocity. Based on the parallel distributed compensation method and the disturbance observer, the fault-tolerant controller is solved. The Lyapunov theory is used to prove the stability of the closed-loop system. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed fault-tolerant control strategy are illustrated by simulation results.展开更多

By using purely mathematical transformations, the decoupled input-output representations of HLLV were derived, rendering three decoupled second-order systems, i.e., pitch, yaw and roll channels. Based on a new type of numerical differentiator, a differential algebraic observer (DAO) was proposed for estimating the system states and the generalized disturbances, including various disturbances and additive fault torques. Driven by DAOs, three improved proportional-integral- differential (PID) controllers with disturbance compensation were designed for pitch, yaw and roll control. All signals in the closed-loop system were guaranteed to be ultimately uniformly bounded by utilization of Lyapunov's indirect method. The convincing numerical simulations indicate that the proposed control scheme is successful in achieving high performance in the presence of parametric perturbations, external disturbances, noisy corruptions, and actuator faults.展开更多

The method utilizes the parallel sub-filters for estimating the ionosphere differential corrections. Meanwhile, an infinite norm (IN) method is proposed for the detection of the ionosphere irregularity in the filter processing. Once the anomaly is detected, the sub-filter contaminated by the anomaly measurements will be excluded to ensure the reliability of the estimates. The simulation is conducted to validate the method and the results indicate that the anomaly can be found timely due to the novel fault detection method based on the infinite norm. Because of the parallel sub-filter architecture, the measurements are classified by the spatial distribution so that the ionosphere anomaly can be positioned and excluded more easily. Thus, the method can provide the robust and accurate ionosphere differential corrections.展开更多

文摘We study a novel replication mechanism to ensure service continuity against multiple simultaneous server failures.In this mechanism,each item represents a computing task and is replicated intoξ+1 servers for some integerξ≥1,with workloads specified by the amount of required resources.If one or more servers fail,the affected workloads can be redirected to other servers that host replicas associated with the same item,such that the service is not interrupted by the failure of up toξservers.This requires that any feasible assignment algorithm must reserve some capacity in each server to accommodate the workload redirected from potential failed servers without overloading,and determining the optimal method for reserving capacity becomes a key issue.Unlike existing algorithms that assume that no two servers share replicas of more than one item,we first formulate capacity reservation for a general arbitrary scenario.Due to the combinatorial nature of this problem,finding the optimal solution is difficult.To this end,we propose a Generalized and Simple Calculating Reserved Capacity(GSCRC)algorithm,with a time complexity only related to the number of items packed in the server.In conjunction with GSCRC,we propose a robust replica packing algorithm with capacity optimization(RobustPack),which aims to minimize the number of servers hosting replicas and tolerate multiple server failures.Through theoretical analysis and experimental evaluations,we show that the RobustPack algorithm can achieve better performance.
文摘Fault tolerance is essential for reliable and sustainable smart city infrastructure.Interconnected IoT systems must function under frequent faults,limited resources,and complex conditions.Existing research covers various fault-tolerant methods.However,current reviews often lack system-level critique and multidimensional analysis.This study provides a structured review of fault tolerance strategies across layered IoT architectures in smart cities.It evaluates fault detection,containment,and recovery techniques using specific metrics.These include fault visibility,propagation depth,containment score,and energy-resilience trade-offs.The analysis uses comparative tables,architecture-aware discussions,and conceptual plots.It investigates the impact of fault tolerance on decision-making in Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition(SCADA)systems,sensor networks,and real-time controllers.Simulation results and logic-based design support the relationships between evaluation metrics.Findings show a common reliance on redundancy and reactive methods.Many techniques fail to address cross-layer propagation,context-aware adaptation,and silent fault impact on user trust.The study combines these overlooked aspects into a system-level framework.This survey identifies performance bottlenecks and supports the design of adaptive,energy-efficient,and transparent IoT systems.The results contribute to bridging technical reliability with public trust,supporting scalable and responsible smart city development.

文摘The aircraft braking system is critical to ensure the safe take-off and landing of the aircraft.However,the braking system is often exposed to high temperatures and strong vibration working environments,which makes the sensor prone to failure.Sensor failure has the potential to compromise aircraft safety.In order to improve the safety of the aircraft braking system,a fault detection and fault-tolerant control(FDFTC)strategy for the aircraft brake pressure sensor is designed.Firstly,a model based on a bidirectional long short-term memory(Bi-LSTM)network is constructed to estimate the brake pressure.Then,the residual sequence is obtained by comparing the measured pressure with the estimated pressure.On this basis,the improved sequential probability ratio test(SPRT)method based on mathematical statistics is applied to analyze the residual sequence to detect the fault.Finally,simulation and hardware-in-the-loop(HIL)testing results indicate that the proposed FDFTC strategy can detect sensor faults in time and efficiently complete braking when faults occur.Hence,the proposed FDFTC strategy can effectively deal with the faults of the aircraft brake pressure sensor,which is of great significance to improve the reliability and safety of the aircraft.
