Abstract

As modern supercomputing systems reach peta-flop performance they grow in both size and complexity, becoming increasingly vulnerable to failures. Checkpointing is a popular technique for tolerating such failures. Although a variety of automated system-level checkpointing solutions are currently available to HPC users, manual application-level checkpointing remains more popular due to its superior performance. This paper improves performance of automated checkpointing by presenting a compiler analysis for incremental checkpointing. This analysis, which works with both sequential and OpenMP applications, significantly reduces checkpoint sizes and enables asynchronous checkpointing.

A fully informed model-based checkpointing protocol for preventing useless checkpoints

Checkpointing and rollback recovery are widely used techniques for handling failures in distributed systems. When processes involved in a distributed computation are allowed to take checkpoints independently without any coordination with each other, ...
