Abstract

This article compares several strategies for storing checkpoint data from parallel applications in an opportunistic gridenvironment. In terms of computational overhead, storage overhead, and degree of fault tolerance, the authors evaluate the use ofreplication, parity information, and erasure coding. They use an object-oriented grid middleware solution called InteGrade to implementthese strategies and to perform the evaluation experiments.
