3. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Introduction
 Aim to provide a scheme which will help
a MU recover efficiently, taking reduced
amount of time to recover from its last
secure state
 This new mobile computing environment
poses challenging problems in designing
fault-tolerant systems

 Region: BSs under the same MSC.
 Designated BS: First BS for a MU registration
inside a region.
MSC
BS1 BS3
BS2
DBS

12. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
………
 Characteristics of DBS:
 Store all the log entry done by respective
MU.
 Different DBS for different region.
ISE - DSCE – 2013 12

13. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Inter-region
 Step 1: MU registers with a BS in a Region, changes
state of that BS as DBS for that MU.
 Step 2: MU does some transactions, stores the log
at respective DBS.
 Step 3: MU goes out of that region and comes
under another region and repeats the same
registration procedure, making first registered BS as
DBS for that region.
 Step 4: Current DBS calls for the logs from the
previous region DBS.
 Step 5: Previous DBS transfers all the respective MU
log to the new DBS.

15. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Intra-region
 Log transfer from MU cache to BS:
 When?
 EitherMU memory is exhausted.
 Or a handoff is detected.
 How?
 Log is updated to the current BS.
 It is appended to the DBS log.
ISE - DSCE – 2013 15

16. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Log management
 Registration:
 Connect(MHID, PBSID, DBSID)
 MHID: ID of the MU.
 PBSID: Previous BS’s ID.
 DBSID: ID of respective region’s DBS.
ISE - DSCE – 2013 16

17. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Case 1 log management
 Step 1: MU registers with a BS in a Region, changes
state of that BS as DBS for that MU.
 Step 2: MU does some transactions, stores the log at
respective DBS.
 Step 3: MU goes out of DBS vicinity and comes under
BS2 cell.
 Step 4: MU registers itself to new BS with
connect(MHID, PBSID, DBSID).
 Step 5: BS2 sends a message to PBSID ‘MHID is with
me’.
 Step 6: Since the PBS is also the DBS for that
MU, hence no action taken and the message is
discarded.

19. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Case 2 log management
Going on in addition with previous scenario:
 Step 1: Now MU has moved from BS2 to BS3,
repeats the same registration process as in
previous case and the PBS (BS2) is notified by
the current BS (BS3) about that MU existence.
 Step 2: Now BS2 checks for the PBS for that
MU in its memory, since the PBS is the DBS
hence no delete message or action required.

21. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Case 3 log management
In addition with previous scenario:
 Step 1: MU goes from BS3 to BS4 now and performs
the same registration process with BS4, BS4 notifies
BS3 about MU.
 Step 2: The with respect to that MU, PBSID stored at
BS3 is not the DBS hence a ‘delete’ message from
BS3 is sent to BS2.
 Step 3: BS2 on receiving of ‘delete’ message transfers
all log for that MU to the respective DBS.
 Step 4: DBS acknowledges BS2 about log successful
transfer.
 Step 5: BS2 deletes respective MU’s log entry from its
memory.

23. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Case 4 log management
When we further move on in this scenario:
 Step 1: MU comes back to the recent visited BS
forming a loop i.e. from BS4 to BS3, registration
process is done in the same previous manner.
 Step 2: BS4 checks whether the PBS and current BS
of that MU in its memory are same? If yes, send the
respective MU’s log to current BS i.e. logs are
transferred from BS4 to BS3.
 Step 3: BS3 appends the BS4 log with its current
available log and BS3 deletes the PBSID for that MU
from its memory.

25. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Recovery case 1
 Recovery in same BS where it crashed:
 Uses log saved in current BS.
 If not sufficient go for previous BS.
 If that is also insufficient, go for MU’s DBS.
 By using DBS log MU is restored with
required previous state.
ISE - DSCE – 2013 25

26. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Recovery case 2
 Recovery in BS other than in which failed:
 Current BS unaware of handoff.
 PBSID is unavailable.
 Old BS in which MU failed notifies respective
DBS about MU failure.
 When MU tries to recover, current BS queries
DBS for log.
 Using DBS log MU is recovered.
ISE - DSCE – 2013 26

27. RECOVERY IN MOBILE DATABASE SYSTEM
Advantages
 Preceding BS log maintenance gives
latest recovery option.
 Unification at DBS avoids redundancy of
logs.
 Loop is tackled.
 Auto unification of logs at one site helps:
 Quick recovery.
 Achieve real time system deadlines.
