Abstract
We present the first comprehensive framework for implementing metamorphic fault tolerance. A key innovation in this framework is the application of risk formulas to evaluate the likelihood of inputs producing trustworthy outputs. Experiments demonstrate its effectiveness, especially without the need of test oracles.
期刊介绍:
Computer, the flagship publication of the IEEE Computer Society, publishes peer-reviewed articles written for and by computer researchers and practitioners representing the full spectrum of computing and information technology, from hardware to software and from emerging research to new applications. The aim is to provide more technical substance than trade magazines and more practical ideas than research journals. Computer seeks to deliver useful information for all computing professionals and students, including computer scientists, engineers, and practitioners of all levels.
