title = "Determining Z-Paths Between Checkpoints of a Distributed Computation",
abstract = "Finding consistent global checkpoints of a distributed computation has applications in the areas of rollback recovery, distributed debugging, output commit and others. Netzer and Xu introduced the notion of zigzag paths between checkpoints and proved that a set of checkpoints can be part of a consistent global checkpoint if and only if there is no zigzag path between any two (not necessarily distinct) checkpoints in the set. In this paper, we present a method for determining the existence of zigzag paths between checkpoints.",
