Blue Gene R /P is a massively parallel supercomputer intended as the successor to Blue Gene/L. It leverages much of the existing architecture of its predecessor to provide scalabi...
This paper describes Project Kittyhawk, an undertaking at IBM Research to explore the construction of a nextgeneration platform capable of hosting many simultaneous web-scale work...
Large-scale systems like BlueGene/L are susceptible to a number of software and hardware failures that can affect system performance. Periodic application checkpointing is a commo...
