Applications that use collections of very large, distributed datasets have become an increasingly important part of science and engineering. With high performance wide-area networ...
It has become increasingly popular to construct large parallel computers by connecting many inexpensive nodes built with commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) parts. These clusters can ...
User estimates of job runtimes have emerged as an important component of the workload on parallel machines, and can have a significant impact on how a scheduler treats different ...
Abstract—In addition to its use in local area networks, Ethernet has been used for connecting hosts in the area of highperformance computing. Here, we investigated the impact of ...
Efficient and robust metacomputing requires the decomposition of complex jobs into tasks that must be scheduled on distributed processing nodes. There are various ways of creating...
