چکیده

We give a detailed evaluation on communication-induced checkpointing protocols which are domino-eeect free. We investigate the validity of a common intuition in the literature, and demonstrate that there is no optimal on-line domino-free protocol in terms of the number of forced checkpoints. Formal proofs on comparing existing protocols in the literature are also given.

Adaptive Communication-Induced Checkpointing Protocols with Domino-Effect Freedom

The domino effect is an important problem for the checkpointing and rollback recovery in distributed systems. Communication-induced checkpointing is one way of preventing domino effect. Most existing such protocols focus on guaranteeing that every checkpoint is part of a consistent global checkpoint. This may induce high run-time overhead due to the possibly excessive number of extra forced che...

Performance Comparisons of Index-based Communication-induced Checkpointing Protocols

Communication-induced checkpointing (CIC) protocols can be used to prevent the domino effect. Such protocols that belong to the index-based category have been shown to perform more efficiently. In this paper, some results of comparing indexbased CIC protocols are proposed. First, we prove that comparing several protocols based on the lazy indexing strategy can be simply based on their checkpoin...

Efficient Checkpoint-based Failure Recovery Techniques in Mobile Computing Systems

Conventional distributed and domino effect-free failure recovery techniques are inappropriate for mobile computing systems because each mobile host is forced to take a new checkpoint (based on coordinated checkpointing). Otherwise, multiple local checkpoints may need to be stored in stable storage (based on communication-induced checkpointing). Hence, this investigation presents a novel domino ...

Impossibility of scalar clock-based communication-induced checkpointing protocols ensuring the RDT property

Communication-induced checkpointing protocols constitute an interesting approach to the on-line determination of checkpoint and communication patterns enjoying desirable properties such as domino-effect freedom. They do not add control messages to the computation, but instead may attach control information to computation messages. Among these protocols, scalar clock-based protocols are particul...

A checkpointing-recovery scheme for domino free distributed systems

Many communication induced checkpointing algorithms have been proposed for asynchronous cooperating processes. All of them suffer from overhead due both to the exchange of control information and to the insertion of local checkpoints additional to the basic ones. In this paper we propose a low overhead checkpointing-recovery scheme. It consists of a domino-free checkpointing algorithm plus an a...
