Abstract
Compiler-based checkpointing for error recovery. In various embodiments, a compiler is adapted to identify checkpoints in program code. Sets of data objects are associated with the checkpoints, and checkpoint code is generated by the compiler for execution at the checkpoints. The checkpoint code stores state information of the associated data objects for recovery if execution of the program is interrupted.
