Abstract

The fault-tolerant multiprocessor (FTMP) is a bus-based multiprocessor architecture with real-time and fault-tolerance features and is used in critical aerospace applications. A preliminary performance evaluation is of crucial importance in the design of such systems. In this paper, we review stochastic Petri nets (SPN) and develop SPN-based performance models for FTMP. These performance models enable efficient computation of important performance measures such as processing power, bus contention, bus utilization, and waiting times.
