This paper introduces MadeleineII, a new adaptive and portable multi-protocol implementation of the Madeleine communication library. MadeleineII has the ability to control multipl...
This paper presents a new approach towards parallel I/O for message-passing (MPI) applications on clusters built with commodity hardware and an SCI interconnect: instead of using t...
Most clusters so far have used WAN or LAN-based network products for communication due to their market availability. However, they do not always match communication patterns in cl...
