Commodity computer clusters are often composed of hundreds of computing nodes. These generally off-the-shelf systems are not designed for high reliability. Node failures therefore...
Debugging the performance of parallel and distributed systems remains a difficult task despite the widespread use of middleware packages for automatic distribution, communication...
Rapid advances in networking, hardware, and middleware technologies are facilitating the development and deployment of complex grid applications, such as large-scale distributed co...
As computational clusters increase in size, their mean-time-to-failure reduces. Typically checkpointing is used to minimize the loss of computation. Most checkpointing techniques, ...
— A critical problem facing by managing large-scale clusters is to identify the location of problems in a system in case of unusual events. As the scale of high performance compu...
