<div><b>Abstract: </b> The Young/Daly formula provides an approximation of the optimal checkpoint period for a parallel application executing on a large-scale platform. It was originally designed to handle fail-stop errors for preemptible tightly-coupled applications.
It has recently been extended to other application and resilience frameworks, such as workflows, silent errors, and imprecise knowledge of key parameters (MTBF and checkpoint duration). We provide some background and survey various scenarios to assess the
usefulness and limitations of the formula.<br>
