Networks of Workstations (NOW) have become important and cost-effective parallel platforms for scientific computations. In practice, a NOW system is heterogeneous and non-dedicat...
This paper proposes efficient algorithms for implementing multicast in heterogeneous workstation/PC clusters. Multicast is an important operation in many scientific and industri...
We consider schemes for enacting task share changes—a process called reweighting—on real-time multiprocessor platforms. Our particular focus is reweighting schemes that are de...
Distributed computations, dealing with large amounts of data, are scheduled in Grid clusters today using either a task-centric mechanism, or a worker-centric mechanism. Because of ...
Abstract--In this article we present KRASH, a tool for reproducible generation of system-level CPU load. This tool is intended for use in shared memory machines equipped with multi...
