High performance application development remains challenging, particularly for scientists making the transition to a Grid environment. In general areas of computing, virtual envir...
Advances in virtualization technology have focused mainly on strengthening the isolation barrier between virtual machines (VMs) that are co-resident within a single physical machi...
We have designed a functional data-parallel language called BSML for programming bulk-synchronous parallel (BSP) algorithms. The execution time can be estimated and dead-locks and ...
As cluster computers are used for a wider range of applications, we encounter the need to deliver resources at particular times, to meet particular deadlines, and/or at the same t...
This paper proposes a novel way to use virtual memorymapped communication (VMMC) to reduce the failover time on clusters. With the VMMC model, applications’ virtual address spac...
