Abstract

An index-based checkpointing and recovery protocol has been presented that uses time to indirectly coordinate the creation of consistent global checkpoint for mobile computing systems. The protocol is computationally more efficient because it takes fewer checkpoints than many other protocols and does not need to compute dependency relationships. Also, the protocol is non-blocking, adaptive, and uses very few control messages. Moreover, the number of control messages is independent of the increase in the number of mobile hosts and the size of control messages is also small.
