This survey covers rollback-recovery techniques that do not require special language
constructs. In the first part of the survey we classify rollback-recovery protocols into …

Software robustness has significant impact on system availability. Unfortunately, finding
software bugs is a very challenging task because many bugs are hard to reproduce. While …

Past research in message logging has focused on studying the relative overhead imposed
by pessimistic, optimistic and causal protocols during failure-free executions. In this paper …

A variety of research problems exist that require considerable time and computational
resources to solve. Attempting to solve these problems produces long‐running applications …

Concurrent and Distributed Computing in Java addresses fundamental concepts in
concurrent computing with Java examples. The book consists of two parts. The first part …

We discuss the design and implementation of Egida, an object-oriented toolkit designed to
support transparent rollback-recovery. Egida exports a simple specification language that …

Stream processing in the last decade has seen broad adoption in both commercial and
research settings. One key element for this success is the ability of modern stream …

A number of checkpointing and message logging algorithms have been proposed to support
fault tolerance of mobile computing systems. However, little attention has been paid to the …

This paper considers providing two types of QoS guarantees, proportional delay
differentiation (PDD) and absolute delay guarantee (ADG), in the database connection pool …

A fault tolerant message passing system includes a plurality of interconnected processors
with storage and a watchdog process wherein the processors may undergo failure. A …
