FaultTolerant Parallel Computation presents recent advances in algorithmic ways of introducing faulttolerance in multiprocessors under the constraint of preserving efficiency. The difficulty associated with combining faulttolerance and efficiency is that the two have conflicting means: faulttolerance is achieved by introducing redundancy, while efficiency is achieved by removing redundancy. This monograph demonstrates how in certain models of parallel computation it is possible to combine efficiency and faulttolerance and shows how it is possible to develop efficient algorithms without concern for faulttolerance, and then correctly and efficiently execute these algorithms on parallel machines whose processors are subject to arbitrary dynamic failstop errors. The efficient algorithmic approaches to multiprocessor faulttolerance presented in this monograph make a contribution towards bridging the gap between the abstract models of parallel computation and realizable parallel architectures.FaultTolerant Parallel Computation presents the state of the art in algorithmic approaches to faulttolerance in efficient parallel algorithms. The monograph synthesizes work that was presented in recent symposia and published in refereed journals by the authors and other leading researchers. This is the first text that takes the reader on the grand tour of this new field summarizing major results and identifying hard open problems. This monograph will be of interest to academic and industrial researchers and graduate students working in the areas of faulttolerance, algorithms and parallel computation and may also be used as a text in a graduate course on parallel algorithmic techniques and faulttolerance.
