  • Abstract
    Checkpointing is an important method for providing fault tolerance, load balancing, process migration, periodic backup, and many other functions. It is also the basic tool used in CAPE, a paradigm which aims at distributing the execution of a program on a distributed-memory environment. This paper presents a new approach to checkpoint and an original optimization on the checkpoint structure that we have implemented and evaluated to make incremental checkpointing more efficient and more appropriate, especially for CAPE.
