Welcome to the site of CSE 6207 (Advanced Dependable and Fault-Tolerant Computer Systems). In this course, our goals are to be familiar with different aspects of reliability and fault tolerance. In parallel, we will do our own research studies on fault-tolerant systems from a theoretical or experimental perspective.
A little background of the course:
Here is a relevant famous quote:
“When a complex system succeeds, that success masks its proximity to failure. . . . Thus, the failure of the Titanic contributed much more to the design of safe ocean liners than would have her success. That is the paradox of engineering and design.”
-- Henry Petroski, Success through Failure: The Paradox of Design, Princeton U. Press, 2006, p. 95
In this course, our goal is to focus more from the perspective of "design of safe ocean liners" than that of "failure of the Titanic"!
