| Learning outcomes |
|
The course gives basic knoledge needed for understanding the occurrence of faults in computer systems, methods of system fault state handling and methods for providing software fault-tolerance. The tasks of dependability are considered both for standalone applications and for distributed applications. Accidental and intentional malicious faults are also taken into consideration. The course helps to percept the design of modern complex systems, gives mastery of basic skills required for the work of system administrator and system security analyst.
