    Time: Thursday, April 20, 1989, 12:05 --- Place: GB 220

       The high  cost  of  specialized  hardware  and  software
  development  has  limited the use of fault tolerant computing
  technology to a small number of highly critical applications.
  This  talk  describes  the  design  of  a  low  cost reliable
  computer system  that  provides  transparent  fault  tolerant
  support to application programs.

       About half of  this  seminar  will  be  based  upon  the
  presenter's  thesis.   The  remainder will relate experiences
  constructing the  prototype  (FTDUNIX),  and  raise  unsolved
  issues which are potential thesis topics.

                          Coming Soon
