SFT: A Consistent Checkpointing Algorithm with Short Freezing Time

  • A consistent checkpointing algorithm with short freezing time (SFT) is presented in this paper. It supports fault-tolerance in distributed systems. The algorithm has shorter freezing time, lower overhead, and simplicity of recovery. To make checkpoint time shorter, a special control message (Munblock) is used to ensure that a process can respond the checkpoint event quickly at any given time. Moreover, main memory algorithm is used to improve the concurrency of checkpointing. By using SFT, the freezing tim…
