Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProviding Reliability in Replicated Middleware ApplicationsR. Saravanan, N. RamarajProblem statement: Data inconsistency is raised in actively replicated environment due to non-determinism in the applications that defeats the purpose of replication as a fault-tolerance strategy. Approach: We proposed an efficient framework RTC which ensured determinism among the replicas in fault tolerance middleware applications. This method exploits the technique of statically analyzing the application source code of client and identifies … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,703 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel Approach to Determine the Effects of MS Environment using the Portable GPS Receiver with Built-in AntennaWan Azlan Wan Zainal Abidin, Kiyotaka Fujisaki, Mitsuo TateibaCommunication impairment on the Mobile Satellite (MS) path for non-geostationary satellite is mainly due to effect of multipath and shadowing. In order to study the signal quality received by the MS user, a receiver system that has similar characteristics to the actual receiver used by the MS user should be used.
