Reliability Analysis of Distributed Computing System using Fault Tree Analysis

R. Gupta, Dr. P. K. Yadav

Abstract


In the Current time every organization designs its own intranet when they work on the different distributed infrastructure and connect on one another with the help of intermediate device such as router and switch. To Implementation of infrastructure based on different issue like configuration, maintaining and different topology to design a reliable distributed system. In the paper we design a network with the help of network simulator to check the different structure of intranet and reliability to distribute the load of a network among its various edges link. To design an infrastructure we use different apparatus like switch, router, Ethernet and serial connection, PCs and use different techniques. The developed system is fragmented to form a fault tree and its reliability is assessed with the aid of fault tree analysis.


Keywords
