Book Optimal Rollback Recovery with Checkpointing and Damage Assessment for Concurrent Processes

Download or read book Optimal Rollback Recovery with Checkpointing and Damage Assessment for Concurrent Processes written by University of Michigan. Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Computer Science and Engineering Division and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To counter the problem of error propagation, a damage assessment model is developed to estimate the correctness of saved checkpoints under various circumstances. Then, using the results of damage assessment, determination of the "optimal" checkpoints for rollback recovery -- which minimize the average total recovery time -- is formulated and solved as a non-linear integer programming problem."

Book An Evolutionary Approach to Concurrent Checkpointing

Download or read book An Evolutionary Approach to Concurrent Checkpointing written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes an evolutionary approach to establishing a consistent global recovery line for concurrent processes. Unlike globally synchronized schemes, our approach uses no agreement protocols and thus no rounds of messages to decide upon a recovery line. Unlike logging-based schemes, our approach neither stores the messages exchanged between concurrent processes, nor constructs message dependence graphs to determine a recovery line. In contrast to communication synchronized schemes, our technique reduces overhead by not always synchronizing computation with checkpointing and by allowing a potentially inconsistent recovery line temporarily. Evolutionary concurrent checkpointing periodically starts a checkpointing session by checkpointing each process locally. As the checkpointing session progresses, the initial checkpoints are updated according to the communication between the concurrent processes. This local checkpoint updating guarantees that the recovery line evolves into a consistent line. Evolutionary concurrent checkpointing can be applied to message-based multicomputer systems, shared virtual memory systems, and shared memory multiprocessors. We evaluate the performance of our approach using execution traces from a hypercube multicomputer and a shared-memory multiprocessor. fault tolerant computing, checkpointing, and rollback error recovery.

Book Dependable Computing   EDDC 3

Download or read book Dependable Computing EDDC 3 written by Jan Hlavicka and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-06-26 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of creating the European Dependable Computing Conference (EDCC) was born at the moment when the Iron Curtain fell. A group of enthusiasts, who were pre viously involved in research and teaching in the ?eld of fault tolerant computing in different European countries, agreed that there is no longer any point in keeping pre viously independent activities apart and created a steering committee which took the responsibility for preparing the EDCC calendar and appointing the chairs for the in dividual conferences. There is no single European or global professional organization that took over the responsibility for this conference, but there are three national in terest groups that sent delegates to the steering committee and support its activities, especially by promoting the conference materials. As can be seen from these materi als, they are the SEE Working Group “Dependable Computing” (which is a successor organizationof AFCET)in France,theGI/ITG/GMATechnicalCommitteeonDepend ability and Fault Tolerance in Germany, and the AICA Working Group “Dependability of Computer Systems” in Italy. In addition, committees of several global professional organizations, such as IEEE and IFIP, support this conference. Prague has been selected as a conference venue for several reasons. It is an easily accessible location that may attract many visitors by its beauty and that has a tradition in organizing international events of this kind (one of the last FTSD conferences took place here).

Book Dependable Computing for Critical Applications 2

Download or read book Dependable Computing for Critical Applications 2 written by John F. Meyer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers presented at the Second International Work ing Conference on Dependable Computing for Critical Applications, sponsored by IFIP Working Group lOA and held in Tucson, Arizona on February 18-20, 1991. In keeping with the first such conference on this topic, which took place at the University of California, Santa Barbara in 1989, this meeting was like wise concerned with an important basic question: Can we rely on Computers? In more precise terms, it addressed various aspects of computer system de pendability, a broad concept defined as th'e trustworthiness of computer service such that reliance can justifiably be placed on this service. Given that this term includes attributes such as reliability, availability, safety, and security, it is our hope that these papers will contribute to further integration of these ideas in the context of critical applications. The program consisted of 20 papers and three panel sessions. The papers were selected from a total of 61 submissions at a November 1990 meeting of the Program Committee in Ann Arbor, Michigan. We were very fortunate to have a broad spectrum of interests represented, with papers in the final program coming from seven different countries, representing work at universities, corporations, and government agencies. The process was greatly facilitated by the diligent work of the Program Committee and the quality of reviews provided by outside referees. In addition to the paper presentations, there were three panel sessions or ganized to examine particular topics in detail.
