Title: Detection of shared memory faults in a computing job

Abstract

Technology for determining whether an inter-process type message has been successfully sent from a first process to a second process running on a single computer with a single processor(s) set. A variable (for example, a bit value) is used to indicate whether the inter-process message has been communicated between the processes. A timer and a predetermined timeout threshold are used to determine if the inter-process message has been pending for too long without being successfully communicated.
