Abstract

Process replication approaches using a server cluster system are widely used to provide reliable and available distributed application services. However, a server cluster system consumes a large amount of electric energy compared with process non-replication approaches. In this paper, an RATB-DSTPR (Redundant Active Time-Based algorithm with Differentiating Starting Time of Process Replicas) algorithm is newly proposed to reduce the total electric energy consumption of a server cluster by differentiating starting time of process replicas. The evaluation results show the total electric energy consumption of a server cluster and the average response time of each process can be reduced in the RATB-DSTPR algorithm.
