Abstract

State-of-the-art supercomputer is extremely complex, expensive and energy-saturated system. Every component of supercomputer is unreliable and can fail any time. In RCC MSU we are working on the system aimed to eliminate bad after-effects of hardware and software failures and to secure a reliable and efficient autonomous functioning of supercomputers. The system is based on the supercomputer model represented as multi-graph.
