Abstract

CAPE, which stands for Checkpointing-Aided Parallel Execution, is a framework that automatically translates and provides runtime functions to execute OpenMP programs on distributed-memory architectures based on checkpointing techniques. In order to execute an OpenMP program on distributed-memory systems, CAPE uses a set of templates to translate an OpenMP source code into a CAPE source code which is then compiled using a regular C/C++ compiler. This code can be executed on distributed-memory systems under the support of the CAPE framework.

This paper aims at presenting the design and implementation of a new execution model based on Time-stamp Incremental Checkpoints. The new execution model allows CAPE to use resources efficiently, avoid the risk of bottlenecks, overcome the requirement of matching the Bernstein’s conditions. As a result, these approaches make CAPE improving the performance, ability as well as reliability.
