Abstract

Even though self-healing techniques for transactional processes have attracted enough attention in recent years, several critical issues regarding the distributed systems have not been addressed. For example, if we do the recovery under sustained attacks, in which condition the recovery can terminate? Is a synchronized clock necessary for distributed recovery? In this paper, we proposed a dead-lock free algorithm for coordinated recovery and answered related questions. We also proved that under specific situations, we have to freeze the recovery scheme to guarantee that the recovery can make progress.
