Distributed shared memory (DSM) creates an abstraction of a physical shared memory that parallel programmers can access. Most recent software DSM systems provide relaxed-memory models that guarantee consistency only at synchronization operations, such as locks and barriers. As the main goal of DSM systems is to provide support for long-term computation-intensive applications, checkpointing and recovery mechanisms are highly desirable. This article presents and evaluates the integration of a coordinated checkpointing mechanism to the barrier primitive that is usually provided with many DSM systems. Our results on some popular benchmarks and a real parallel application show that the overhead introduced during the failure-free execution is often small.
