Evaluation of Network Dependability Using Event Injection

Event injection is a new technique for evaluating dependability of target system, and it’s developed on the basis of fault injection techniques. This paper proposed an event injection system for assessing dependability of computer network system, analyzed the event injection in details, and described the course of event injection and the key techniques. Finally, the testing results of the response time and average flow speed of network server by DoS attack experiments are given.
