Abstract

As individuals and organizations increasingly rely on services provided by complex computing systems for their everyday tasks, system dependability becomes a main concern. The dependability of a system is commonly defined as the property of it such that reliance can justifiably be placed on the service it delivers [1] and includes, as special cases, attributes such as reliability, availability, safety, and security. In addition, dependable systems must also be robust when facing the "messiness" of the real world, delivering correct service across a wide range of operational conditions and failing gracefully outside that range [15, 16].
