Fault injection in distributed Java applications

TL;DR: A framework and a methodology based on the individual control of nodes, al lowing test cases to precisely control the volatility of nodes during their execution and three different architectures to control the execution of test cases in distributed systems are proposed.

TL;DR: Self- stabilization in eulerian networkswith cut-through constraints, self- stabilizing census with cut- through constraints, and Optimal reactive -stabilization : The case of mutual exclusion.

TL;DR: This paper presents a model-driven approach to craft and inject software faults in source code, and while its concrete application is presented for Java, the workflow it proposes does not depend on a specific programming language.

TL;DR: The framework is based on the individual control of peers, allowing test cases to precisely control the volatility of peers during execution, and is validated through implementation and experimentation on two open-source P2P systems.

TL;DR: An integrated software fault injection environment (DOCTOR) which is capable of generating synthetic workloads under which system dependability is evaluated, injecting various types of faults with different options, and collecting performance and dependability data is presented.

TL;DR: NFTAPE as discussed by the authors is a tool for composing automated fault injection experiments from available lightweight fault injectors, triggers, monitors, and other components, which helps to solve the problems of no single tool is sufficient for injecting all necessary fault models; it is difficult to port these tools to new systems.

TL;DR: ORCHESTRA, a portable fault injection environment for testing implementations of distributed protocols, is reported on, based on a simple yet powerful framework called script-driven probing and fault injection, for the evaluation and validation of the fault-tolerance and timing characteristics of distributing protocols.

TL;DR: This position paper sketches the design of an infrastructure that uses a universal overlay to provide a scalable infrastructure to bootstrap multiple service overlays providing different functionality.
