Metacomputing infrastructures couple multiple clusters (or MPPs) via wide-area networks. A major problem in programming parallel applications for such platforms is their hierarchi...
Abstract. Current solutions for fault-tolerance in HPC systems focus on dealing with the result of a failure. However, most are unable to handle runtime system configuration change...
