Garbage Collection for Service Oriented Distributed Reliable Environment D-ReServE

Abstract

D-ReServE increases reliability of SOA-based systems in case of failure occurrence. The fault-tolerant information in D-ReServE is stored in the Stable Storage, which available space depletes with time. Thus, in this paper we propose a garbage collection protocol for D-ReServE that allows the periodic purging of the Stable Storage, and discuss the challenges of garbage collection due to the nature of SOA systems.
