Abstract
If the variables used for a checkpointing algorithm have data faults, the algorithm may fail. In this paper, a self-stabilizing checkpointing algorithm is proposed for handling data faults in a ring network. The proposed algorithm can deal with concurrent initiations of checkpointing and at most one data fault per process. However, several processes may be faulty.
