A MODEL OF FAULT-TOLERANT FUNCTIONING OF VIRTUAL REALITY SYSTEMS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE IMPACT OF A DYNAMICALLY CHANGING ENVIRONMENT

Abstract

The study examines the problem of ensuring the fault tolerance of virtual reality systems in dynamically changing environments. The proposed formalized model takes into account the influence of external factors such as network conditions, user behaviour, system load, hardware constraints, and environmental factors on the key components of the system, including hardware, software, data, and users.

The methodology for constructing vector and matrix structures to model the interaction between system components and influencing factors is described. Special attention is given to integrating the model with modern decision-support systems, which allows for the automation of the process of analysing and selecting optimal strategies to minimize the negative impact of external factors.

Furthermore, the application of fuzzy logic methods enables the consideration of uncertainty and imprecision in input data, which is typical for real-world VR system operation. The obtained results form a basis for enhancing the adaptability, performance, and reliability of VR systems, ensuring their ability to function effectively even under unfavourable conditions.

The study also thoroughly examines the concept of dynamic adaptation of VR systems to changes in the external environment. Various operational scenarios are considered, including both normal operating conditions and extreme situations that may arise during the use of virtual reality technologies.

Additionally, approaches to the development of mechanisms for real-time system monitoring and control are described, allowing for the timely identification of potential threats and the implementation of corrective actions. The proposed model can be used in combination with machine learning algorithms to automate decision-making and predict possible risks.

The research results confirm the effectiveness of the developed methodology and its potential application in a wide range of VR applications, including simulation systems, education, entertainment, and industrial use.
