    • A Heuristic Approach for the Automatic Insertion of Checkpoints in Message-Passing Codes 

      Rodríguez, Gabriel; Martín, María J.; González, Patricia; Touriño, Juan (Technische Universitaet Graz * Institut fuer Informationssysteme und Computer Medien,Graz University of Technology, Institute for Information Systems and Computer Media, 2009-08)
      [Abstract] Checkpointing tools may be typically implemented at two different abstraction levels: at the system level or at the application level. The latter has become a more popular alternative due to its flexibility and ...

    • A Novel Compiler Support for Automatic Parallelization on Multicore Systems 

      Andión, José M.; Arenaz Silva, Manuel; Rodríguez, Gabriel; Touriño, Juan (Elsevier, 2013-09)

      Rodríguez, Gabriel; Martín, María J.; González, Patricia; Touriño, Juan; Doallo, Ramón (Springer New York LLC, 2013)
      [Abstract] With the evolution of high-performance computing, parallel applications have developed an increasing necessity for fault tolerance, most commonly provided by checkpoint and restart techniques. Checkpointing tools ...

    • CPPC: a compiler‐assisted tool for portable checkpointing of message‐passing applications 

      Rodríguez, Gabriel; Martín, María J.; González, Patricia; Touriño, Juan; Doallo, Ramón (John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2010-11-19)
      [Abstract] With the evolution of high‐performance computing toward heterogeneous, massively parallel systems, parallel applications have developed new checkpoint and restart necessities. Whether due to a failure in the ...

    • Extending an Application-Level Checkpointing Tool to Provide Fault Tolerance Support to OpenMP Applications 

      Losada, Nuria; Martín, María J.; Rodríguez, Gabriel; González, Patricia (Technische Universitaet Graz * Institut fuer Informationssysteme und Computer Medien,Graz University of Technology, Institute for Information Systems and Computer Media, 2014-09)
      [Abstract] Despite the increasing popularity of shared-memory systems, there is a lack of tools for providing fault tolerance support to shared-memory applications. CPPC (ComPiler for Portable Checkpointing) is an ...

    • Failure Avoidance in MPI Applications Using an Application-Level Approach 

      Cores González, Iván; Rodríguez, Gabriel; González, Patricia; Martín, María J. (Oxford University Press, 2014)
      [Abstract] Execution times of large-scale computational science and engineering parallel applications are usually longer than the mean-time-between-failures. For this reason, hardware failures must be tolerated by the ...

    • Improving Scalability of Application-Level Checkpoint-Recovery by Reducing Checkpoint Sizes 

      Cores González, Iván; Rodríguez, Gabriel; Martín, María J.; González, Patricia; Osorio, Roberto (Springer Japan KK, 2013)
      [Abstract] The execution times of large-scale parallel applications on nowadays multi/many-core systems are usually longer than the mean time between failures. Therefore, parallel applications must tolerate hardware failures ...

    • In-memory application-level checkpoint-based migration for MPI programs 

      Cores González, Iván; Rodríguez, Gabriel; Martín, María J.; González, Patricia (Springer New York LLC, 2014)
      [Abstract] Process migration provides many benefits for parallel environments including dynamic load balancing, data access locality or fault tolerance. This paper describes an in-memory application-level checkpoint-based ...
