A tool for reversible computation in C++ based on incremental state saving.
Backstroke is a tool for reversible computation and supports C++11. It is a command line tool for generating reversible C++ source code and is distributed with a runtime library that can maintain all data necessary to support reversibility. The runtime library implements a so called Runtime State Store (RTSS) and is called rtss library. Backstroke implements a technique for incremental state saving (also called incremental check-pointing).
Backstroke supports the simulator ROSS for parallel discrete event simulation (PDES) and can establish automatically the reversibility of ROSS models.
Install ROSE.
Backstroke requires ROSE to be installed. ROSE is available at www.rosecompiler.org.
Clone the backstroke repository and install Backstroke.
Run “make install” in the root directory of the Backstroke distribution. Backstroke can be uninstalled with 'make uninstall'.
Note, Backstroke does not require to run configure because it obtains all configuration information from the ROSE installation by calling the ROSE tool rose-config. The tool backstroke and the rtss library are installed at the same location as ROSE.
