Abstract

This paper describes a new checkpoint recovery protocol for Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems with read-write objects. It is based on independent checkpointing integrated with a coherence protocol for the atomic consistency model. The protocol offers high availability of shared objects in spite of multiple node and communication failures, introducing little overhead. It ensures fast recovery in case of multiple node failures and enables a DSM system to circumvent the network partitioning, as far as a majority partition can be constituted. A formal proof of correctness of the protocol is also presented.
