Abstract :
We present a heuristic for producing automatically a distributed fault-tolerant schedule of a given data-flow algorithm onto a given distributed architecture. The faults considered are processor failures, with a fail-silent behavior. Fault-tolerance is achieved with the software redundancy of computations and the time redundancy of data-dependencies
