An Efficient Fault Tolerant Mechanism for Mobile Grid Environment

In mobile grid environment, the existing fault tolerance techniques are not feasible and proficient. The present techniques lack to achieve the maximum profit associated with successful execution of the tasks and is deemed to be costly. Hence, we propose a fault tolerance mechanism for scheduling in mobile grid environment. In this technique, we consider failures that occurs during the execution of computing-focused and communication-focused jobs. In order to detect the failure, a novel structured data packet is sent to the destination. The destination acknowledges with a specific type of data packet corresponding to the received packet. The sender analyses the acknowledgement data packet identifies the place and nature of error. Finally, a fault recovery action is performed using the FTMS technique. By simulation results, we show that the proposed technique is reliable and efficient.
