The performance skeleton of an application is a short running program whose performance in any scenario reflects the performance of the application it represents. Specifically, th...
We have built an eight node SMP cluster called COMPaS (Cluster Of Multi-Processor Systems), each node of which is a quadprocessor Pentium Pro PC. We have designed and implemented a...
The support on cluster environments of ”legacy protocols” is important to avoid rewriting the code of applications, but this support should not prevent to achieve the maximum ...
