Abstract: An arithmetic operation target is input to an information processing apparatus which causes an accelerator apparatus to perform an arithmetic operation using the arithmetic operation target. The information processing apparatus performs, regarding each of a plurality of arithmetic operation elements of the arithmetic operation target, whether to allocate one or more diagnostic circuits, which are available processing circuits for an accuracy diagnosis of the arithmetic operation from a plurality of processing circuits in the accelerator apparatus to the arithmetic operation element on the basis of a failure influence degree. The reliability of the information processing apparatus that is used to judge whether or not to continue an action(s) of the information processing apparatus is calculated on the basis of the number of arithmetic operation elements of the arithmetic operation target, the number of arithmetic operation elements to which at least one diagnostic circuit is allocated, and the failure influence degree.

Abstract: A control system for a motor vehicle having a first control unit for controlling a first function of the motor vehicle, a second control unit for controlling a second function of the motor vehicle and a backup control unit. At least the first or the second control unit is connected in a signal-transmitting manner with the backup control unit. In order to ensure the proper execution of functions of a motor vehicle controlled by the control units with the least possible additional overhead, even with a faulty control unit, the backup control unit is configurable in response to the input of an error signal from the first or the second control unit such that the function of the motor vehicle corresponding to the faulty control unit is be controlled via the backup control unit.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for metadata management for enabling automated switchover in accordance with a configuration of storage solution that expresses a preference for either maintaining availability (e.g., a non-zero RPO mode) of the storage solution or avoiding data loss (e.g., a zero RPO mode). In one example, responsive to detecting a switchover trigger event, a node of a local cluster of a cross-site storage solution determines whether performance of an automated switchover from a failed cluster to a surviving cluster of the cross-site storage solution is enabled. Responsive to an affirmative determination, the node selectively proceeds with the automated switchover based on the configuration.

Abstract: A processor comprises a plurality of processing units, wherein there is a fixed transmission time for transmitting a message from a sending processing unit to a receiving processing unit, based on the physical positions of the sending and receiving processing units in the processor. The processing units are arranged in a column, and the fixed transmission time depends on the position of a processing circuit in the column. An exchange fabric is provided for exchanging messages between sending and receiving processing units, the columns being arranged with respect to the exchange fabric such that the fixed transmission time depends on the distances of the processing circuits with respect to the exchange fabric.

Abstract: A method for generating a copy of a database using a data streaming protocol is disclosed. The method comprises setting up a structure of a secondary database, prioritizing data objects to be copied from a primary database to the secondary database, copying data objects from the primary database to the secondary database using a data streaming protocol, restoring data corresponding to the data object in the secondary database in parallel to copying data objects from the primary database to the secondary database, applying changes made to the data corresponding to the data object in the primary database during the time of copying, after the data object has been copied, and making available the secondary database for usage once all data objects have been copied from the primary database to the secondary database so that a usable copy of the primary database is created.

Abstract: A method for redundant control in a distributed automation system, preferably a real-time automation system, for operating a client device of the distributed automation system is discussed. The method includes using the client device to monitor for the occurrence of a fault in communication between the client device and a first computing infrastructure that is part of the distributed automation system and operates the client device. The method may also include using the client device, once the fault occurs, to instruct a second computing infrastructure of the distributed automation system to operate the client device.

Abstract: Disclosed is a base unit including a video link hub electrically connected to a user interface device to transmit a signal, a first system-on-chip (SoC) configured to provide a first infotainment function, and a processor configured to determine whether the first SoC is operating abnormally. When a second SoC is powered on, the first SoC performs authentication with respect to the second SoC, and when the processor determines that the first SoC is operating normally, the first SoC generates a first execution signal for display of a composite infotainment function, obtained by combining the first infotainment function with a second infotainment function provided by the second SoC, on the user interface device, and transmits the first execution signal to the video link hub, and the processor controls the video link hub to transmit the first execution signal to the user interface device.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques for improving disaster recovery, in particular disaster recovery pertaining to data transfer requests. The data transfer request can be received by each of multiple deployments; however, only a primary deployment can process the request. The data transferred by the primary deployment may be replicated in the secondary deployments. In response to a failover event, one of the secondary deployments can be designated as the new primary development and continue the data transfer based on the data transfer request and the replication information received from the old primary deployment prior to the failover.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes example service takeover methods, storage devices, and service takeover apparatuses. In one example method, when a communication fault occurs between two storage devices in a storage system, the two storage devices respectively obtain running statuses of the two storage devices. A running status can reflect current usage of one or more system resources of a particular storage device. Then, a delay duration is determined according to the running statuses, where the delay duration is a duration for which the storage device waits before sending an arbitration request to a quorum server. The two storage devices respectively send, after the delay duration, arbitration requests to the quorum server to request to take over a service. The quorum server then can select a storage device in a relatively better running status to take over a host service.
