Abstract: This paper proposes the application of On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) and data mining approaches to analyse the large amount of raw data collected in fault injection campaigns and dependability benchmarking experiments. We use data warehousing technologies to store raw results from different experiments in a multidimensional structure where raw data can be analysed by means of OLAP tools. Moreover, we present an approach for identifying the key infrastructural factors determining the behaviour of computer systems in the presence of faults by the application of data mining methods on the data sets. Results obtained with the proposed techniques identified important factors impacting performance and dependability that could not have been revealed solely by the benchmark measures.
