Abstract
In order to make a system tolerant of faults, an application process is replicated on multiple servers. According to the advances of hardware and architecture technologies, each server can be considered to be free of fault, i.e. always proper. On the other hand, replicas of application processes easily suffer from faults, e.g. due to security attacks like virus and hacking. Even if a replica sends a proper reply, the replica may do faulty computation. It takes a longer or shorter time and a server to perform a faulty replica consumes more or smaller electric energy to perform a faulty replica. Such a faulty replica is referred to as implicitly faulty replica. In this paper, we discuss how to detect implicitly faulty replicas by using the power consumption and computation models of a server in addition to checking replies in a homogeneous cluster.
