A Method of Autonomous Recoverment for Survivable System

Abstract:

A method of autonomous recoverment for survivable system was proposed. Firstly, failure models of survivable system were formally described based on stochastic Petri nets, in which a number of measurable index parameters for recoverment were also given out. And then a recursive autonomous recoverment strategy was presented,Compared with the traditional cyclical recovery strategy, recoverment strategies reduced the time and costs of emergency recovery.
