The issue of support for fault-tolerant distributed systems has received much attention in recent years[BABA87, LAMP84, SCHL83]. In this position paper we present some aspects of our research into Distributed Shared Memory systems which concern fault-tolerance. We argue that the viability of DSM systems critically depends on the issue.Our research, which began at the University of California, Los Angeles, was concerned with applications that used shared memory in single site systems and their extension to operate in a distributed environment. Our approach was to modify the underlying operating system to support a new facility called distributed shared memory (DSM).
