The project is expected to primarily focus on the patterns collected in the reference book Hanmer, Robert S.Patterns for fault tolerant software. John Wiley & Sons, 2013. It also serves as a good general introduction to fault-tolerant computing. The scope will be extended towards other academic papers (and existing fault-tolerant computing APIs, as, e.g., SA Forum) as and if justified by the progress.
Learning Objectives
- Introduction to open source culture and collaboration tools
- Deep knowledge of the operational principles of Hyperledger Fabric
- Software engineering techniques of fault tolerant computing
