Scheduling of processes onto processors of a parallel machine has always been an important and challenging area of research. The issue becomes even more crucial and di cult as we ...
As cluster systems become increasingly popular, more and more parallel applications require need not only computing power but also significant I/O performance. However, the I/O s...
One of the goals of the EU CrossGrid project is to provide a basis for supporting the efficient execution of parallel and interactive applications on Grid environments. CrossGrid j...
Message-Passing Interface (MPI) has become a standard for parallel applications in high-performance computing. Within a single cluster node, MPI implementations benefit from the s...
The application of hardware-parameterized models to distributed systems can result in omission of key bottlenecks such as the full cost of inter-node communication in a shared mem...
