Abstract

Recently, Siu et al. failed in their attempt to use the FDAMIX protocol to eliminate the fault diagnosis agreement (FDA) problem with mixed faults on the processors in a general network. Therefore, in this study, a new protocol, the FDAL protocol, is introduced to solve the FDA problem with mixed faults on the links. The FDAL is capable of detecting/ locating faulty links to reconfigure the unreliable general network into a reliable network, and is able to increase the system performance and strengthen network integrity.
