With computers becoming embedded as controllers in everything fromnetwork servers to the routing of subway schedules to NASAmissions, there is a critical need to ensure that systems continueto function even when a component fails. In this book, bestsellingauthor Martin Shooman draws on his expertise in reliabilityengineering and software engineering to provide a complete andauthoritative look at fault tolerant computing. He clearly explainsall fundamentals, including how to use redundant elements in systemdesign to ensure the reliability of computer systems andnetworks.
