Master-checker

Summary

• A master-checker is a hardware-supported fault tolerance method for multiprocessor systems, in which two processors, referred to as the master and checker, calculate the same functions in parallel in order to increase the probability that the result is exact. The checker-CPU is synchronised at clock level with the master-CPU and processes the very same programs as the master.
