Network of workstation (NOW) is a cost-effective alternative to massively parallel supercomputers. As commercially available off-theshelf processors become cheaper and faster, it...
This paper presents a performance analysis of marketbased batch schedulers for clusters of workstations. In contrast to previous work, we use user-centric performance metrics as t...
In this article, we present some results on the communication performance of TCP/IP in a cluster of Pentium based workstations connected by a Gigabit Ethernet network. The experim...
Advances in network technology continue to improve the communication performance of workstation and PC clusters, making high-performance workstation-clustercomputing increasingly ...
This paper reports on the architecture and design of Starfish, an environment for executing dynamic (and static) MPI-2 programs on a cluster of workstations. Starfish is unique in ...
