Abstract: This work presents a theoretical-graph method of determining the fault tolerance degree of the computer network interconnections and nodes. Experimental results received from simulations of this method over a distributed computing network environment are also presented.

Keywords: computer network, fault tolerance, coherent graph, regular graph, network topology, adjacency matrix.

ACM Classification Keywords: C.2.1 Network Architecture and Design - network topology, F.2.1 Numerical Algorithms and Problems - matrix methods, B.8.1 Reliability, Testing, and Fault-Tolerance? - fault tolerance degree
