1. A failure detection system comprising:

  • an exascale machine comprising a supercomputer or a cluster capable of executing at least one exaFLOPS;

    a plurality of processors that comprise part of the exascale machine programmed to execute a programming thread that generates one or more chaotic map trajectories;

    where at least one of the plurality of processors is further programmed to detect a component failure through an automated comparison of signal trajectories generated by a plurality of chaotic maps; and

    where processing threads are inserted into application code that traces the execution paths of at least one tracer code.
