Idealised Fault Tolerant Architectural Element

This paper presents an architectural approach based on exception handling for structuring faulttolerant software systems. We introduce the concept of an idealised fault tolerant architectural element (iFTE) that clearly separates the normal and exceptional behaviours of architectural elements. An advantage of the proposed architectural solution is that it can be instantiated into components and connectors. The feasibility of the proposed architectural approach is evaluated in terms of a simple case study.
