BACKWARD ERROR RECOVERY PROTOCOLS IN DISTRIBUTED MOBILE SYSTEMS: A SURVEY
Sunil Kumar Gupta, Ruby Chauhan, Parveen Kumar · 2008
This survey covers backward error recovery techniques for distributed systems specially the distributed mobile systems. Backward error recovery protocols have been classified into user triggered checkpointing and transparent checkpointing. Transparent checkpointing can be uncoordinated checkpointing, Coordinated checkpointing, Quasi Synchronous or communication-induced checkpointing and Message Logging based Checkpointing. Through out this survey we, highlight the research issues that are at the core of backward error recovery and present the solutions that currently address them.
