(ENG) Mapping applications onto heterogeneous platforms is a difficult challenge, even for simple application patterns such as pipeline graphs. Theproblem is even more complex when processors are subject to failureduring the execution of the application. In this paper, we study thecomplexity of a bi-criteria mapping which aims at optimizing the la-tency (i.e., the response time) and the reliability (i.e., the probabilitythat the computation will be successful) of the application. Latency isminimized by using faster processors, while reliability is increased byreplicating computations on a set of processors. However, replicationincreases latency (additional communications, slower processors). Theapplication fails to be executed only if all t...
