Abstract: In earlier studies of multiversion programming, both empirical and analytical, emphasis switched from notions of independence to one of minimization of coincident failure. We show that neither independence of failure, nor lack of coincident failure are the single important properties. Indeed, an N-version system may deliver an optimal performance (under some voting strategy) even when the incidence of coincident failure is arbitrarily high. The key notion that this study contributes is... (Update)
