Design and implementation of fault-tolerant multimicrocomputer systems

Distributed computer systems based on a multimicrocomputer structure offer the best preconditions to improve the reliability of a system and to realize fault tolerance. Basic fault-tolerant system (BFS), described in this paper, is the implementation of a fault-tolerant multimicrocomputer system. The architecture of BFS is a partially meshed ring structure, based on previous work. This kind of ring structure is appropriate for system monitoring and reconfiguration mechanisms.
