Abstract
A high-reliability computer system is provided in which error correcting codes are preliminarily added to the signals to be applied to a voter from a plurality of computers by error correcting code encoders so that, even if an error resulting from a failure of the voter occurs, an error correcting code decoder can provide a correct result based on the error correcting codes, whereby a failure in the computers and error correcting code encoders can be avoided by means of the voter, a failure in the voter can be avoided by the error correcting code decoder, and a failure in the error correcting code decoder can be avoided by parallel redundancy arrangement.
