Abstract:Group checkpointing is a fix between global checkpointing and log-based recovery. It features both reduced runtime overhead and localized recovery effect for improving the fault-tolerance performance of large-scale distributed systems. However, parallel programs cannot efficiently benefit from this strategy, as they often involve synchronous or semisynchronous interactions that incur extra idling delays between processes as well as between process groups. This paper presents an analytical study on such delays … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
