Nepal:Redundancy

This page is meant to layout redundancy plans for Nepal's spring pilot of OLPC. See the Nepal page for more details on the pilot.

The Basic Heuristics for Redundancy

(a) Determine the minimum setup and identify all components that can fail individually. (b) For each failure, what would be the impact to the entire system. (c) Determine an N+1 or N+2 configuration that might address the concern.
