Objetivo The major objective of the project is to provide a framework for the implementation of fault tolerance in embedded supercomputing applications. This framework will provide a flexible, standard approach for programmers making embedded supercomputing applications more dependable. This approach will shorten the time to market, facilitate software development, maintenance and upgrading, and reduce dependence on specific hardware.Fault-tolerant functions will be accessible to application developers through the high-level API of the fault-tolerance library which extends Embedded PARIX (EPX). This will hide hardware-dependent features from the application programmer, guaranteeing that the application can be ported to standard hardware platforms and run-time kernels. The target architecture of the project is an MIMD, homogeneous, distributed-memory, message-passing, multi-processor system. Work will be performed on a Parsytec embedded system, based on the PowerPC microprocessor. The operating system will be EPX and the programming language will be ANSI C / C++. Important industrial end-user applications of embedded parallel computing will drive the requirements and demonstrate the results. The applications include mail sorting (AEG) and control of high-voltage substations (ENEL).
