Novel Fuzzy Voting Algorithm Based on Parameter Optimization for Fault Tolerant Systems

Abstract
Voting algorithms are widely used for fault masking. These algorithms are used to increase the total reliability of those systems where safety is the major concern. Researchers have proposed many advanced voting algorithms in order to improve the existing voting algorithms over the period. In this paper, we present a critical survey of fuzzy voting algorithms. In addition, we propose a generalized and improved fuzzy voting algorithm.
