"PBeam"hlertoleranz für verteilte Anwendungen mittels Migration und Checkpointing.

Process migration and checkpointing offer the possibility to achieve load balancing and fault tolerance. We discuss some of the problems and possible solutions for supporting these for distributed applications in workstation clusters. We describe the design for our "PBeam" system and its facility for creating global consistent checkpoints of groups of communication process on networked Unix systems, and present first experiences with our implementation.
