unreferenced date February 2008 Referentialtransparency and referential opaqueness are properties of parts of computer program s. An expression programming expression is said to be referentially transparent if it can be replaced with its Value computer science value without changing the program in other words, yielding a program that has the same effects and output on the same input . The opposite term is referentially opaque. While in mathematics all function applications are referentially transparent , in programming this is not always the case. The importance of referentialtransparency is that it allows the programmer and the compiler to reason about program behavior.

How does it relate to Fault tolerant system concept? Is this sub category, uber category, or just the same thing? For example, if a server fails, but users are automatically redirected to another server and never notice the failure, the system is said to exhibit high failure transparency . Failure transparency is one of the most difficult types of transparency to achieve since it is often difficult to determine whether a server has actually failed, or whether it is simply responding very slowly. ref name Tanenbaum Tanenbaum, Andrew S. and Maarten van Steen, Distributed Systems Principles and Paradigms, Prentice Hall, Second Edition, 2007. ISBN 0 132392 27 5 ref Additionally, it is generally impossible to achieve full failure transparency in a distributed system since networks are unreliable. There is also usually a trade off between achieving a high level of failure transparency and maintaining an adequate level of system performance. For example, if a distributed system attempts to mask a transient server failure by having the client try to contact the failed server multiple times, performance of the system may be negatively affected. In this case, it would have been preferable to have given up earlier and tried another server. ref name Tanenbaum References Reflist See also Byzantine fault tolerance Intrusion Tolerance Capillary routing Cluster computing Data redundancy Elegant degradation Error detection and correction Fail safe Fault tolerant design Fault tolerant system Progressive Enhancement Separation of protection and security Transparency computing Category Distributed computing compu stub ... more details
