....As a consequence, developing parallel programs in such systems requires expertise not only in distributed computing, but also in fault tolerance. A large number of important applications (e.g. genome analysis) require days or weeks of computations on a network with dozens of workstations [14]. In these applications, many hours of computation can be wasted not only if there are genuine hardware failures, but also if one of the processors is turned off, rebooted or disconnected from the network. Given that the most common components of a distributed system are workstations and that they ....
