文摘In this papert the hard problem of the thorough garbage collection in uncoordinated Checkpointing algorithms is studied. After introduction of the traditional garbage collecting scheme, with which only obsolete checkpoints can be discarded, it is shown that this kind of traditional method may fail to discard any checkpoint in some special cases, and it is necessary and urgent to find a thorough garbage collecting method, with which all the checkpoints useless for any future rollback-recovery including the obsolete ones can be discarded. Then, the Thorough Garbage Collection Theorem is proposed and proved, which ensures the feasibility of the thorough garbage collection, and gives the method to calculate the set of the useful checkpoints as well.
