Monitoring and fault tolerance are important approaches to give high confidence in long-
running online software systems. But these approaches will certainly cause high overhead
cost, ie the loss of efficiency. Multi-core platforms can make such cost acceptable because of
the parallel performance advantage. For allowing ordinary software developers without any
knowledge of multi-core platforms to handle such programming tasks more efficiently, we
propose an approach to enable multi-core based monitoring and fault tolerance in …
