摘要： A checkpoint of a parallel program is taken in order to provide a consistent state of the program in the event the program is to be restarted. Each process of the parallel program is responsible for taking its own checkpoint, however, the timing of when the checkpoint is to be taken by each process is the responsibility of a coordinating process. During the checkpointing, various data is written to a checkpoint file. This data includes, for instance, in-transit message data, a data section, file offsets, signal state, executable information, stack contents and register contents. The checkpoint file can be stored either in local or global storage. When it is stored in global storage, migration of the program is facilitated. When a parallel program is to be restarted, each process of the program initiates its own restart. The restart logic restores the process to the state at which the checkpoint was taken.

摘要： Data is written to an unsegmented buffer located within shared memory. While data is being written to the unsegmented buffer, at least a portion of the data is being read from the buffer. A counter is used to indicate how much space is available in the buffer to receive data. Further, the counter is employed to ensure that the reader does not advance beyond the writer.
