In this talk we discuss a conjectural local-global principle to decide existence of integral points on algebraic curves. We'll present some partial
results and evidence towards this conjecture. To get a description of the points on the curve, it is necessary to consider not only the curve itself but also its coverings. A nice consequence of the conjecture is an algorithm to decide existence of solutions of some diophantine equations.
