“…9 Future research could attempt to measure the real performance gains associated with such an interface by running it through real scenarios and comparing the results with those obtained by using the conventional interface. Also, new advanced control modes of the space robots could be explored with the help of a VR system, although more precise models of the ISS could be necessary in this case, something that could be possible with the help of advanced sensing system.…”

“…space probes, space robotics [92,93], etc.. For example, high performance computing is required during the very short landing phase of a planetary Lander for real-time range estimation, as well as terrain visualisation and trajectory calculations. Traditionally to meet these demands additional dedicated processors are used.…”

Current and future space missions demand highly reliable on-board computing systems, which are capable to carry out high-performance data processing. At present no single computing scheme could efficiently tackle high-performance computing as well as reliability. This paper aims to address that gap. In the first part of the paper, a detailed survey of fault-tolerant distributed computing systems for space applications is presented. Fault types and performance parameters for assessment of a fault-tolerant system are introduced. Redundancy schemes for distributed systems are analysed. A review of the state-of-the-art on fault-tolerant distributed systems is presented and limitations of current approaches are discussed. In the second part of the paper, a new fault-tolerant distributed computing platform with wireless links among the computing nodes is proposed. Novel algorithms, enabling important aspects of the architecture, such as time slot priority adaptive fault-tolerant channel access and fault-tolerant distributed computing using task migration are introduced.

Today’s distributed systems are more and more\ud complex, so they are required to be autonomic, i.e., to exhibit\ud some self-* properties in order to manage themselves. Autonomic\ud systems are usually composed of different components, which\ud collaborate to achieve a global goal or to provide a high-level\ud service. The collaboration pattern is usually defined statically,\ud but the aim of this paper is to show that there are motivations to\ud enable composed systems to change their collaboration pattern at\ud runtime in an autonomous way, starting from some case studies.\ud This capability of autonomic systems is called self-expression,\ud meaning that a system can express itself despite unexpected\ud situations. Moreover, we propose three perspective solutions that\ud aim at enabling the change at runtime: role-based, descriptionbased,\ud and Artificial Immune Systems (AIS)-inspired
