RSS cpusIntroducing Scalability in Network Measurement: Toward 10 Gbps With Commodity Hardware
White Paper Parallelism is in fact growing in two dimensions: physical and logical CPUs (e.g. The capacity of today's network links, along with the heterogeneity of their traffic, is rapidly growing, more than the workstation's processing power. [04 Aug 2008]
The 15-petabyte network behind the Cern atom smasher
News The LCG will allow researchers to tap into the distributed processing power of almost 100,000 CPUs, crunching through vast amounts of data from the detectors and speeding their hunt for clues about the fundamental nature of the universe. [15 Jul 2008]
A Static Load-Balancing Scheme for Parallel XML Parsing on Multicore CPUs
White Paper A number of techniques to improve the parsing performance of XML have been developed. Generally, however, these techniques have limited impact on the construction of a DOM tree, which can be a significant bottleneck. [10 Jul 2008]
Efficient Load Balancing for Wide-Area Divide-and-Conquer Applications
White Paper To achieve efficient program execution, the generated work load has to be balanced evenly among the available CPUs. Divide-and-conquer programs are easily parallelized by letting the programmer annotate potential parallelism in the form of spawn... [10 Jul 2008]
Load Balancing FTP Servers Through LocalDirector Without the Use of the Proxy FTP Service
White Paper Load balancing is a technique to spread work between two or more computers, network links, CPUs, hard drives, or other resources, in order to get optimal resource utilization, throughput, or response time. [10 Jul 2008]
Ethernet Network Traffic Accelerators
White Paper Even the highest performance processors (CPUs) are unable to keep pace with the demands of the network. The Ethernet migration to 10 Gbps has exceeded microprocessor performance and memory bandwidth. With systems unable to cope with the bandwidth... [08 Jul 2008]
10 GbE Rising Factors Driving the Emergence of 10 Gigabit Ethernet
White Paper Industry trends such as Chip Multithreading (CMT), multicore CPUs such as CoolThreads, Intel Xeon, and AMD Opteron, blade computing, and virtualization are just a few of the significant advances that have increased datacenter capacity. [04 Jul 2008]
Evaluating the IBM eServer pSeries 655 - PART II
White Paper Major public, private, academic and industrial engineering and research laboratories found the p655 to be perfectly suited to their growing need for granular, energy and space efficient building blocks that combine to build systems that scale from... [03 Jul 2008]
Sun and iPlanet Powers UNITAR Virtual University's E-Learning Portal
White Paper To power the e-learning portal and administrative tasks, United Multimedia Sdn Bhd recommended the purchase of Six Sun SPARCstation IPC, One Sun SPARCserver 630MP, one unit of Sun Enterprise 10000 with 34 400 MHz CPUs, 28 GB RAM.2.22 TB Disk... [03 Jul 2008]
Incyte Genomics Shortens Production Cycles and Doubles Productivity With Platform Solutions
White Paper Incyte selected Platform LSF and Platform Analyzer on a Linux cluster of 1,200 CPUs for a dedicated production pipeline, where several million jobs will be handled automatically. Incyte Genomics is a leading drug discovery company. [03 Jul 2008]
Capacity on Demand: 2 - 4 Way Systems Dynamic LPAR Examples for SAP
White Paper The ability to dynamically modify the number of CPUs as well as available memory can offer benefits in being able to quickly manage resources and respond to changing processing requirements. Dynamic LPAR (DLPAR) enables one to make dynamic... [03 Jul 2008]
UpDisk Performance White Paper
White Paper UpDisk provides filesystem-level data replication across multiple CPUs. Because it operates between the application and the storage medium, performance is an important characteristic in addition to the reliability of data replication. [03 Jul 2008]
Blade Technology for Server Farms
White Paper After the historic trend in server technology to increase the size of servers by the number of CPUs, the number of hard disks or PCI slots, it has been observed that the focus is on all-in-one solutions to modular systems separating processing... [03 Jul 2008]
zSeries Performance: Performance Considerations When Moving to Fewer Faster CPUs
White Paper Current processor design continues to deliver more CPU capacity with the same or fewer number of central processors (CPs). This environment results in some customers running their workloads on configurations with fewer CPs. [03 Jul 2008]
Introduction to Simics - Full-System Simulator Without Equal
White Paper Its root capability is to create functional models of CPUs with supporting chips in sufficient detail to execute native object code without modification. Simics is an industrial-strength simulation tool robust enough to take on ambitious projects... [03 Jul 2008]
