The method providing fault-tolerance for information and control systems of the industrial mechatronic objects

The paper deals with the provision of information and control system fault-tolerance. Nowadays, a huge quantity of industrial mechatronic objects operate within hazardous environments, where the human is not supposed to be. So the question of fault-tolerant information and control system design and development becomes the cornerstone of a large amount of industrial mechatronic objects. Within this paper, a new complex method of providing the reconfigurable systems fault-tolerance is represented. It bases on performance redundancy and decentralized dispatching principles. The key term within the method presented is a 'configuration', so the model of the configuration forming problem is represented too, and simulation results are given and discussed briefly.
