Libckpt: transparent checkpointing under Unix
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a portable checkpointing tool for Unix that implements all applicable performance optimizations which are reported in the literature and also supports the incorporation of user directives into the creation of checkpoints.
Journal ArticleDOI
A tutorial on Reed-Solomon coding for fault-tolerance in RAID-like systems
TL;DR: For a systems programmer to be able to implement Reed-Solomon coding for reliability in RAID-like systems without needing to consult any external references, this specification assumes no prior knowledge of algebra or coding theory.

TL;DR: An exhaustive review of the research conducted in neuromorphic computing since the inception of the term is provided to motivate further work by illuminating gaps in the field where new research is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analyzing Market-Based Resource Allocation Strategies for the Computational Grid
TL;DR: The authors measure the efficiency of resource allocation under two different market conditions—commodities markets and auctions—and compare both market strategies in terms of price stability, market equilibrium, consumer efficiency, and producer efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diskless checkpointing
TL;DR: It is concluded that diskless checkpointing is a desirable alternative to disk-based checkpointing that can improve the performance of distributed applications in the face of failures.
