Workshop:SuperCheck-SC21: Second International Symposium on Checkpointing for Supercomputing
Authors: Donglai Dai (X-ScaleSolutions)
Abstract: This survey is presented by X-ScaleSolutions, LLC to the attendees of the SuperCheck-SC21 symposium held in conjunction with the SC’21 conference.
The overall goal of the questions below (40 in total) is to gather information about existing and potential customer needs in general in this community. Specifically, we focus on the following:
● Customer search
o Identify who and what applications use checkpointing tools actively on what system software stacks
o Prioritize those who and what applications could potentially benefit the most by using a checkpointing tool
● Identify functionality gaps
o Are there common needs that are not currently well supported in existing tools like BLCR, DMTCP, FTI, SCR, VeloC, etc
We encourage attendees to participate this survey. The final results of the survey will be shared with all participants via emails after the workshop.
