Efficient Transparent Application Recovery In Client-Server Information Systems

Summary: Integrated server-client recovery for client-server DBs via app-message logging to mask server failures. Avoids forced log I/Os; enables checkpointing and log truncation for fast restarts; permits server-independent recovery with client-side logging. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
