This paper presents a comparative study of Kerrighed, openMosix and OpenSSI, three Single System Image (SSI) operating systems for clusters. This experimental study gives an overv...
The Internet and the Grid are changing the face of high performance computing. Rather than tightly-coupled SPMD-style components running in a single cluster, on a parallel machine...
A range of database services are being offered on clusters of workstations today to meet the demanding needs of applications with voluminous datasets, high computational and I/O r...
In a serverless cluster of PCs or workstations, the cluster must allow remote file accesses or parallel I/O directly performed over disks distributed to all client nodes. We intro...
This paper describes improvements to the Mach microkernel’s support for efficient application startup across multiple nodes in a cluster or massively parallel processor. Signifi...
