Description

Reliability problems arise with increasing frequency as our systems of telecommunications, information transmission, transportation, and distribution become more and more complex.

In December 1989 at DIMACS at Rutgers University, a Workshop on Reliability of Computer and Communication Networks was held to examine the discrete mathematical methods relevant to these problems.

There were nearly ninety participants, including theoretical mathematicians, computer scientists, and electrical engineers from academia and industry, as well as network practitioners, engineers, and reliability planners from leading companies involved in the use of computer and communications networks.

This volume, published jointly with the Association for Computing Machinery, contains the proceedings from this Workshop.

The aim of the Workshop was to identify the latest trends and important open problems, as well as to survey potential practical applications.The Workshop explored questions of computation of reliability of existing systems and of creating new designs to insure high reliability, in addition to the closely related notion of survivability.

Redundancy, single stage and multistage networks, interconnected networks, and fault tolerance were also covered.

The Workshop emphasized practical applications, with many invited speakers from a variety of companies which are dealing with practical network reliability problems.

The success of the Workshop in fostering many new interactions among researchers and practitioners is reflected in the proceedings, which provide an exciting look at some of the major advances at the forefront of this important field of research.
