The popularity of the Mobile Database is increasing day by day as people need information
even on the move in the fast changing world. This database technology permits employees …

Real-time systems are becoming ever more widely used in life-critical applications, and the
need for fault-tolerant scheduling can only grow in the years ahead. This article presents a …

Recovery from transient failures is one of the prime issues in the context of distributed
systems. These systems demand to have transparent yet efficient techniques to achieve the …

Mobile computing is a computing era in which all nodes in a network are mobile and self-
configured nodes capable of communicating with one another via wireless links. Because of …

Recently, fault tolerance and energy consumption have attracted a lot of interest in the
design of modern embedded real-time systems. Fault tolerance is fundamental for these …

Checkpointing-based fault tolerance techniques facilitate systems to carry out tasks in the
occurrence of faults. A checkpoint is a local state of a process saved on stable storage. In a …

A distributed application involving Mobile hosts consists of a set of cooperating processes in
which some of them run on MHs. An MH is connected to the wired network through mobile …

This paper proposes an efficient non-blocking coordinated checkpointing algorithm for
distributed message passing system which uses transitive dependency information. The …

Distributed mobile systems are ubiquitous now-a-days. These systems are important
building blocks and are useful for constructing efficient protocols for client--server systems …
