Abstract

Fuzzy logic and grey theory, combined with adaptive heartbeat mechanism, are integrated to implement an adaptive failure detector for distributed systems. A GM(1,1) unified-dimensional new message model, which only needs a small volume of sample data, is used to predict heartbeat arrival time dynamically. Since prediction error is inevitable, a two-input (residual ratio and message loss rate), one-output (compensation value) fuzzy controller is designed to learn how to compensate for the output from the grey model, and the roughly determined fuzzy rule base is tuned by a reward-punishment learning principle. Experimental results show the availability and validity of the failure detector in detail.
