Summary :

All the existing sender-based message logging (SBML) protocols share a well-known limitation that they cannot tolerate concurrent failures. In this paper, we analyze the cause for this limitation in a unicast network environment, and present an enhanced SBML protocol to overcome this shortcoming while preserving the strengths of SBML. When the processes on different nodes execute a distributed application together in a broadcast network, this new protocol replicates the log information of each message to volatile storages of other processes within the same broadcast network. It may reduce the communication overhead for the log replication by taking advantage of the broadcast nature of the network. Simulation results show our protocol performs better than the traditional one modified to tolerate concurrent failures in terms of failure-free execution time regardless of distributed application communication pattern.
