unreferenced date December 2007 A goal of redundant topologies is to eliminate Computer network network downtime caused by a single point of failure . All networks need Redundancy engineering redundancy for enhanced reliability. Network reliability is achieved through reliable equipment and network designs that are tolerant to failures and faults. Networks should be designed to reconverge rapidly so that the fault is bypassed. In a redundant mesh topology network devices are connected with many redundant interconnections between network nodes. In a true mesh topology every node has a connection to every other node in the network. A mesh network with redundant connections is an example of a redundant topology. The level of redundancy can be measured by Connectivity graph theory network connectivity . On a redundantly connected network if a router were to fail connectivity would be preserved by routing traffic through a redundant connection. Furthermore, each router should have two or more points, or legs , with which to keep redundancy. Failures within the solution Redundant network topologies are designed to ensure that networks continue to function in the presence of single points of failure. Work is interrupted less often for users because the network continues to function. Any interruptions that are caused by a failure should be as short as possible. Reliability is increased by redundancy. A network that is based on switches or bridges will introduce redundant links between those switches or bridges to overcome the failure of a single link. These connections introduce physical loops into the network. These bridging loops are created so if one link fails another can take over the function of forwarding traffic. In this transition, any unknown destination for currently flowing traffic is flooded over every port except the one it originated from. At layer 2, headers don t have a Time to live TTL time to live value. If a frame is sent into a layer 2 looped topology of switches ... more details

A redundant church is a Church building church building that is no longer required for regular public worship. The phrase is particularly used to refer to former Anglican buildings in the United Kingdom, but may refer to any disused church building around the world. Reasons for redundancy include population movements, changing social patterns, merging of parishes, decline in church attendance or other factors. Although once simply demolished or left to ruin, today many redundant churches find new uses as community centres, museums, houses or other more innovative solutions. United Kingdom Established church buildings Although church buildings are disused around the world, in England , the term was particularly used by the Church of England which had a Redundant Churches Division . In 2008, the Church changed the terminology surrounding church closure and as such redundancy is now known as closure for regular public worship. The Redundant Churches Division became the Closed Churches Division. There are a number of reasons for a church building being declared redundant, although it is primarily due to a reduction in the number of regular Sunday worshippers, which fell since the late 1980s to about 1.7m in 2008. ref http www.churchofengland.org media centre ... redundant churches were formerly maintained in parishes situated in deserted medieval village deserted ... magazine, from 1969 to 2002, 1,600 Church of England buildings had been declared redundant, and of those ... http www.economist.com node 1057312 Redundant churches Pints in the pews , The Economist , 28 ... the Scottish Redundant Churches Trust cares for several former Church of Scotland church ...

Set in seventeen year old Lucy s Sheffield council flat, the play follows a year in the promiscuous teenager s life as she makes one disastrous choice after another. It is a dark, often humorous, examination of social poverty. In the introduction in his collected volume of plays, Butler writes of his central character Though she is a victim of poverty in particular, poverty of imagination and of opportunity Lucy is never a victim in her own home. She never gives up, and both her dreams, however delusional, and her tough, oppositional spirit remain unspoiled even by the end of the play .

Focal Plane Arrays are arrays of Receiver radio receivers placed at the focus of a radio telescope . Traditional radio telescopes have only one receiver at the focus of the telescope, but radio telescopes are now starting to be equipped with focal plane arrays, which are of three different types multi beam feed arrays, bolometer arrays, and the experimental phased array feeds. Multi beam feed arrays Multi beam feed arrays incorporate several distinct heterodyne Superheterodyne receiver receivers, each with its own feed horn , in a small array at the focus of the radio telescope . A feed array with n receivers will increase the survey speed of the telescope by a factor n, making them very powerful survey instruments. Because radio wavelengths are large, the resulting feed arrays are amongst the largest radio astronomy receivers ever built. Examples include the multi beam arrays ref http www.atnf.csiro.au research multibeam Parkes Multibeam ref ref http adsabs.harvard.edu abs 2007IAUS..237..403C ref on the Parkes Observatory , and the ALFA ref http www.naic.edu alfa ALFA ref array at Arecibo Observatory , both of which have been used for major pulsar and Hydrogen line studies, such as HIPASS .

Network Attached Secure Disks NASD is 1997 2001 research project of Carnegie Mellon University , with the goal of providing cost effective scalable computer storage storage Bandwidth computing bandwidth . Overview NASD reduces the overhead on the file Server computing server file manager by allowing storage devices to transfer data directly to Client computing client s. Most of the file manager s work is offloaded to the storage disk without integrating the file system policy into the disk. Most client operations like Read Write go directly to the disks less frequent operations like authentication go to the file manager. Disks transfer variable length objects instead of fixed size blocks to clients. The File Manager provides a time limited cachable capability for clients to access the storage objects. A file access from the client to the disks has the following sequence The client authenticates itself with the file manager and requests for the file access. If the client can be granted access to the file requested, the client receives the Computer network network location of NASD disks and their capability. If the client is accessing the disk for the first time, it receives a time limited key for the establishment of secure communication to the disk. The file manager informs the corresponding disk using an independent channel. From now on, the client directly accesses the NASD disks by giving the capability it received and further data transfers go through the network, bypassing the file manager.

Microstructured optical arrays MOAs are instruments for focusing x ray optics x ray s. MOAs utilise total external reflection at Angle of incidence Grazing angle grazing incidence from an array of small channels in order to bring x rays to a common focus optics focus . This method of focusing means that MOAs exhibit low Absorption electromagnetic radiation absorption . MOAs are used in applications which require x ray focal spots in the order of few micrometers or below, such as radiobiology of individual cells. Current MOA based focusing optics designs have two consecutive array components in order to reduce Coma optics comatic aberration . Properties Image MOA config 1.jpg thumb 300px Fig. 1 MOA with second component compressed. MOAs are achromatic which means the focal properties do not change for radiation of different wavelengths as they utilize grazing incidence reflection. This means that they are able to focus chromatic radiation to a common point unlike zone plate s. MOAs are also adjustable as the optic can be compressed in order to alter the focal properties such as focal length . Focal length can be calculated for the system in fig. 1 using the geometry shown in fig. 2 where it can be seen that changing the gap between the components d D in the figure or the radius of curvature R will have a large effect on the focal length.

The term may imply some kind of Load balancing computing load balancing between the servers. Ia a simple, high performance, mainframe grade alternative to today s Enterprise computing infrastructure solutions. Te RAIS, turn an array of ordinary servers into a single virtual machine like RAID turns a cluster of ordinary disks into a single block device. Every RAIS node is a stateless computing unit. RAIS stripes and mirrors application code and memory across an array of ordinary servers using the standard RAID schemata of level 0, level 1, level 5, level 1 0. This is possible through the invention of a radical new memory management system called Versioned Memory. RAIS provide the benefits of an SMP at the entry cost of clusters. How does RAIS work. Data blocks of each stream are striped across the array servers. A fast packet switch is used to connect server and client stations. Each server has a dedicated network segment, and each client contacts the server one by one . Each server has its own storage, CPU, and network segment, the server capacity increases with the number of servers. In a manner more usually associated with very high cost SMP architectures.

refimprove date July 2010 A redundant array of independent memory RAIM is a design feature found in certain computer s main random access memory . RAIM utilizes additional memory modules and Data striping striping algorithms to protect against the failure of any particular module and keep the memory system operating continuously. RAIM is similar in concept to a redundant array of independent disks RAID , which protects against the failure of a disk drive , but in the case of memory it supports several DRAM device chipkill s and entire memory channel failures. RAIM is much more robust than parity checking and ECC memory technologies which cannot protect against many varieties of memory failures. On July 22, 2010, IBM introduced the first and thus far only high end computer server featuring RAIM, the zEnterprise 196 . Each z196 machine contains up to 3 TB usable of RAIM protected main memory. The formal announcement letter offered some additional information regarding the implementation quotation ... IBM s most robust error correction to date can be found in the memory subsystem. A new redundant array of independent memory RAIM technology is being introduced to provide protection at the dynamic random access memory DRAM , dual inline memory module DIMM , and memory channel level. Three full DRAM failures per rank can be corrected. DIMM level failures, including components such as the controller application specific integrated circuit ASIC , the power regulators, the clocks, and the board, can be corrected. Memory channel failures such as signal lines, control lines, and drivers receivers on the MCM can be corrected. Upstream and downstream data signals can be spared using two spare wires on both the upstream and downstream paths. One of these signals can be used to spare a clock signal line one upstream and one downstream . Together these improvements are designed to deliver System z s most resilient memory subsystem to date. ref cite web url http www 01.ibm.com cgi bin ... more details

Unreferenced date December 2009 A machine which is Dual Modular Redundant has duplicated elements which work in parallel to provide one form of Redundancy engineering redundancy . A typical example is a complex computer system which has duplicated nodes, so that should one node fail, another is ready to carry on its work. For instance the Submarine Command System SMCS used on submarines of the Royal Navy employs duplicated central computing nodes, interconnected by a duplicated LAN. A lockstep computing lockstep fault tolerant machine uses replicated elements operating in parallel. At any time, all the replications of each element should be in the same state. The same inputs are provided to each replication, and the same outputs are expected. The outputs of the replications are compared using a voting circuit. A machine with two replications of each element is termed dual modular redundant DMR . The voting circuit can then only detect a mismatch and recovery relies on other methods. Examples include 1ESS switch . A machine with three replications of each element is termed triple modular redundancy triple modular redundant TMR . The voting circuit can determine which replication is in error when a two to one vote is observed. In this case, the voting circuit can output the correct result, and discard the erroneous version. After this, the internal state of the erroneous replication is assumed to be different from that of the other two, and the voting circuit can switch to a DMR mode. This model can be applied to any larger number of replications. DEFAULTSORT Dual Modular Redundant Category Reliability engineering Category Fault tolerant computer systems ... more details

Multiple issues peacock May 2011 primary sources September 2009 orphan September 2009 A hybrid array uses a data storage architecture approach that is designed to provide IT data center s and cloud computing data centers with high storage performance at a lower cost per I O, by combining hard disk drive s HDDs with solid state drive s SSDs using intelligent SSD caching software. Summary High performance HybridArrays HPHAs combine intelligent SSD caching software, low cost serial ATA SATA drives, or higher performance serial attached SCSI SAS drives, with high I O performance, energy efficient SSDs, used as cache pools, to create hybrid storage arrays. This approach combines the scalability and relative affordability of low cost HDD technologies, with the low latency, high I O performance and energy efficiency of SSDs, enabling data centers to maximize performance while minimizing capital and operating costs. HPHA systems are managed by an SSD cache pool aware storage controller, which uses intelligent data conditioning capabilities to determine how to most efficiently provision the data between the HDD and the SSD devices. Depending on data center performance and capacity needs, an HPHA can consist of any combination of HDDs, SSDs and SSD caching technology. Background and purpose HPHAs are designed to accelerate performance and hardware efficiency in large scale data centers and cloud computing environments running advanced I O intensive IT data center applications, such as web server web serving , File server file serving , and database s e.g. MySQL , which require scalable IT resources, compliance with key regulatory measures, and simplified management, while meeting new, lower IT total cost of ownership TCO requirements. The HPHA approach is designed to achieve the best ... for the same data blocks. All data is protected and stored on the hard disk drives or arrays.
