A Comparative Analysis of the Reliability of Simple and Two-Level Checkpointing Techniques in two Different Distributed Industrial Control System Arc…

In Distributed industrial control systems it is necessary to guarantee certain reliability level. In this sense, Checkpointing and Rollback techniques offer interesting possibilities to achieve fault tolerance without appreciable cost and complexity increment. Several Checkpointing techniques have been proposed. Most of them suppose the presence of stable storage in the system. But distributed industrial control systems usually do not dispose of this kind of storage. So, another storage strategy has to be employed. If Checkpoints were locally stored (Simple Checkpointing), the system tolerates only transient faults. If Checkpoints were locally, at the same node, and, additionally, at anothe…
