Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordReliability Evaluation of Distributed Computer Systems Subject to Imperfect Coverage and Dependent Common-Cause FailuresLiudong Xing, Akhilesh ShresthaImperfect coverage (IPC) occurs when a malicious component failure causes extensive damage due to inadequate fault detection, fault location or fault recovery. Common-cause failures (CCF) are multiple dependent component failures within a system due to a shared root cause. Both imperfect coverage and common-cause failures can exist in distributed computer systems and can contribute significantly to the overall system unreliability. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 28 Sep 2006 · 6,838 accessesView PDF Cite
