In a Linux cluster, as in any multi-processor system, the inter-processor communication rate is the major limiting factor to its general usefulness. This research is geared toward...
With dramatic improvements in cost-performance, the use of clusters of personal computers is fast becoming widespread. For ease of use and management, a Single System Image (SSI) ...
Supermon is a flexible set of tools for high speed, scalable cluster monitoring. Node behavior can be monitored much faster than with other commonly used methods (e.g., rstatd). ...
A practical problem faced by users of metacomputers and computational grids is: If my computation can move from one system to another, how can I ensure that my data will still be ...
We describe the communication infrastructure (CI) for our fault-tolerant cluster middleware, which is optimized for two classes of communication: for the applications and for the ...
