Commodity computer clusters are often composed of hundreds of computing nodes. These generally off-the-shelf systems are not designed for high reliability. Node failures therefore...
The idle computers on a local area, campus area, or even wide area network represent a significant computational resource--one that is, however, also unreliable, heterogeneous, an...
Dynamic Parallel Schedules (DPS) is a flow graph based framework for developing parallel applications on clusters of workstations. The DPS flow graph execution model enables automa...
