TLDR
An optimized approach to checkpointing is proposed that will mainly focus on the limitation of the mobile computing system and thus saves cost by reducing the overhead of transferring large amount of data to the stable storage at the mobile support station.
Abstract
A mobile computing system is a distributed system in which at least one of the process is mobile. They are constrained by lack of stable storage, low network bandwidth, mobility, frequent disconnection and limited battery life. Checkpointing is one of the commonly used technique to provide fault tolerance in mobile computing environment,. In order to suit the mobile environment an optimized approach to checkpointing is proposed that will mainly focus on the limitation of the mobile computing system and thus saves cost by reducing the overhead of transferring large amount of data to the stable storage at the mobile support station.

Checkpointing and Rollback-Recovery for Distributed Systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the problem of bringing a distributed system to a consistent state after transient failures, and propose a distributed algorithm to create consistent checkpoints, as well as a rollback-recovery algorithm to recover the system from transient failures.

The performance of consistent checkpointing

TL;DR: It is argued that these measurements show that consistent checkpointing is an efficient way to provide fault tolerance for long-running distributed applications.

Mobile IP : design principles and practices

TL;DR: This book describes how to make a mobile computer user a citizen of the Internet and how to access everything the information superhighway has to offer and provides an introduction to the design and implementation of Internet protocols that are useful for maintaining network connections even while moving from place to place.

Low-cost checkpointing and failure recovery in mobile computing systems

TL;DR: A synchronous snapshot collection algorithm for mobile systems that neither forces every node to take a local snapshot, nor blocks the underlying computation during snapshot collection, and a minimal rollback/recovery algorithm in which the computation at a node is rolled back only if it depends on operations that have been undone due to the failure of node(s).

Global checkpointing for distributed programs

TL;DR: A novel algorithm for checkpointing and rollback recovery in distributed systems is presented that includes the damage assessment phase, unlike previous schemes that either assume that an error is detected immediately after it occurs (fail-stop) or simply ignore the damage caused by imperfect detection mechanisms.
