Popis: Modern high-energy physics experiments require sophisticated and complex control systems. The control systems should be able to tolerate radiation generated by high-energy accelerators and thus reliability is important feature. Reliability of control systems depends on hardware and software quality. Hardware solutions are the most effective techniques to protect system against radiation influence. Commercial of the shelf (COTS) elements are used often and protection mechanisms are moved from hardware to software layer, due to cost-effective design. This paper highlights the new approach to protect systems on software level. The protection against soft errors is assured by operating system that is transparent to other applications
