The current fault tolerant computing systems and various computer systems still rely on the outstanding technique of resilient sensor Brook-Iyengar’s (BI) algorithm and this was invented and published in 1996 with IEEE computing systems. The novel idea proposed of the algorithm institutes groundwork standards in various domains like Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS), Fault Tolerant Schemes (FTS) and various application computing systems. The crucial contribution of the algorithm is majorly found in enhancing the features of MINIX real-time operating system, the hybrid architecture and scalability of the algorithm is proficient enough to encounter the unreliable and distributed sensors data using the Byzantine [1] agreement and distributed decision-making process methods. In this paper, we study and reveal the contribution and influences of BI in MINIX real-time operating systems and their recent enhancement of incorporating the fault tolerant schemes with a case study.
