Business Process Management
(KM-BPM)
With respect to business process, a well-designed business process could be able to handle fault in order to prevent possible failures.

A fault could influence KPIs and result in a failure. It can be defined as a deviation from a desired KPI

Service Composition and Coordination
(KM-SC)
A design process is necessary to identify and handle faults at run time in a composite service
A Monitoring mechanism could be applied to diagnose a fault. Once a fault has been identified an application may adapt by choosing an alternative service.[CD-JRA-1.1.4] A fault could influence the non-functional requirements

Service Infrastructure
(KM-SI)


A fault can be defined as a deviation in a quality of service in terms of performance dimensions [CD-JRA-1.2.4] [CD-JRA-2.3.4]

Generic
(domain independent)


A manifestation of an error in software. A fault, if encountered, may cause a failure. [FOLDOC]

Fault is an (usually) observable event in the service execution that can produce an erroneous state and, as a consequence, a failure. [CD-JRA-1.2.2]
