AI Thread Summary
In a system utilizing triple modular redundancy, three modules compute the same function on a 16-bit input. Given outputs a, b, and c, the goal is to determine the most likely correct output based on the assumption that zero errors occur frequently, one error is rare, and two or more errors are almost never expected. The outputs are analyzed bit by bit, considering the possibility of errors in the outputs. The discussion raises a question about whether the gates connecting the modules are AND gates, suggesting that the type of gate could influence the output determination process. The analysis focuses on identifying the correct output by examining the consistency of bits across the three outputs.

Code:
Referring to figure Q5, which shows triplemodule
redundancy, assume that each module is configured to
calculate the same function y=f(x) on 16bit
input word x. Without knowing what is the value of x, and without
knowing the exact function f() that each module implements, determine the most likely correct output from
this system given the following information:
Output a=0001 1010 1111 1011
Output b=0010 1101 0000 0111
Output c=1000 0111 0000 1101


Hi guys, can someone explain to me what is going on. I have no clue of what does the question want. I am unable to copy down the diagram. But each module is connected to an AND gate.

Such that a AND b, b AND c, a AND c

and I would have to tell which is the correct output.
 
Computer science news on Phys.org
With triple modular redundancy they assume:
zero errors happen most of the time,
one error happens rarely and
two or more errors happen almost never, you sometimes or often assume this never happens.

So if you look at your outputs I think you should be trying to look at each column.
If you do that and you use the assumptions above then what do you get?

Different issue, are you sure those are AND gates and not XOR or XNOR gates?
You might want to think why I would ask a question like that.
 
Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term. I have an MS 365 subscription and I've noticed on my Word documents the small circle with my initials in it is sometimes different in colour document to document (it's the circle at the top right of the doc, that, when you hover over it it tells you you're signed in; if you click on it you get a bit more info). Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
