Efficient recovery information management schemes for the fault tolerant mobile computing systems

This paper presents region-based storage management schemes, which support the efficient implementation of checkpointing and message logging for fault tolerant mobile computing systems. In the proposed schemes, a recovery manager assigned for a group of cells takes care of the recovery for the mobile hosts within the region. As a result, the recovery information of a mobile host, which may be dispersed over the network due to the mobility of the host, can efficiently be handled.
