Fault tolerance services Sample Clauses

Fault tolerance services. In safety critical systems that rely on interactive consistency, replica determinism of application execution is a crucial pre-requisite for fault tolerance services. In practice this mandates programming models that enforce a run-to-completion semantic. This paradigm, however to a certain extent contradicts parallel program execution, which inhibits taking advantage of modern multi-core hardware platforms. Therefore it is necessary to elaborate on programming models that allow parallelism without endangering replica determinism in a multi-core environment.
