High-frequency memory checkpointing is an important technique in several application domains, such as automatic error recovery (where frequent checkpoints allow the system to transparently mask failures) and application debugging (where frequent checkpoints enable fast and accurate time-traveling support). Unfortunately, existing (typically incremental) checkpointing frameworks incur substantial performance overhead in high-frequency memory checkpointing applications, thus discouraging their adoption in practice.This paper presents Speculative Memory Checkpointing (SMC ), a new low-overhead technique for high-frequency memory checkpointing. Our motivating analysis identifies key bottlenecks in existing frameworks and demonstrates that the performance of traditional incremental checkpointing strategies in high-frequency checkpointing scenarios is not optimal. To fill the gap, SMC relies on working set estimation algorithms to eagerly checkpoint the memory pages that belong to the writable working set of the running program and only lazily checkpoint the memory pages that do not. Our experimental results demonstrate that SMC is effective in reducing the performance overhead of prior solutions, is robust to variations in the workload, and incurs modest memory overhead compared to traditional incremental checkpointing.
Thermoplastic composites can reduce cost and save weight in airplane structures. Currently on the market there is no thermoplastic door available for commercial aircraft. The overall goal of TOD project is to demonstrate and validate the manufacturing process of thermoplastic door components, induction welding assembly process, additive manufacturing and metallic parts of door mechanism, metallic and thermoset parts of surrounding structure of the passenger and service door of an aircraft. The activities of TOD project have received funding from the Clean Sky 2 Joint Undertaking under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement number 821192.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
