List scheduling algorithms attempt to minimize latency under resource constraints using a priority list. We propose a new heuristic that can be used in conjunction with any priori...
—Multiple processors or multi-core CPUs are now in common, and the number of processes running concurrently is increasing in a cluster. Each process issues contiguous I/O request...
Abstract. In distributed streaming media server clusters, by adopting cooperative caching (CC) technique, the free memory of all the servers can be combined to form a bigger, logic...
Symmetric Multiprocessors (SMPs), combined with modern interconnection technologies are commonly used to build cost-effective compute clusters. However, contention among processor...
This paper describes an implementation of parallel LU factorization. The focus is to achieve high performance on non-dedicated clusters, where the number of available computing re...
