A key feature of Grid Checkpoint Recovery service is recoverability of jobs among heterogeneous Grid resources. In other words, resources on which jobs are checkpointed need not be of the same type as those on which the jobs are recovered, as long as the application code operating on the checkpointing resource can be built for and run on the recovery platforms. The benefits of a resource-independent checkpoint recovery capability for Grids include facilitation of strategic or tactical job preemption and migration (e.g. job load balancing among available resources, cost-based job migration, etc.), in addition to recoverability of Grid-managed computational jobs across heterogeneous resources. </p> <p><strong>Documents:</strong><br> GGF Documents generated by the GridCPR Working Group, as well as related content, are available <a href="docs/index.html">here</a>.</p> <p><strong>Notes from past GridCPR Working Group meetings:</strong><br> GGF16 Athens (no meeting)<br> <a href="GGF15/GridCPR-GGF15-notes.html">GGF15 Boston</a><br> <a href="GGF14/GridCPR-GGF14-notes.html">GGF14 Chicago</a><br> GGF13 Seoul (no meeting)<br> <a href="SC04/GridCPR-SC04-notes.html">SC04 Pittsburgh</a><br> <a href="GGF12/GridCPR-GGF12-notes.html">GGF12 Brussels</a><br> <a href="GGF11/GridCPR-GGF11-notes.html">GGF11 Hawaii</a><br> <a href="GGF10/GridCPR-GGF10-notes.html">GGF10 Berlin</a><br> <a href="GGF9/GridCPR-GGF9-notes.html">GGF9 Chicago</a><br> <a href="GGF8/GridCPR-GGF8-notes.html">GGF8 Seattle</a><br> <a href="GGF7/GridCPR-GGF7-notes.html">GGF7 Tokyo</a><br> <a href="GGF6/GridCPR-GGF6-notes.html">GGF6 Chicago</a><br> <a href="GGF5/GridCPR-GGF5-notes.html">GGF5 Edinburgh</a></font></p> <p>GGF<sup>SM</sup>, Global Grid Forum<sup>SM</sup>, Grid Forum<sup>SM</sup>, and the GGF Logo are trademarks of GGF.
