Designing a Highly-Scalable Operating System: The Blue Gene/L Story
White Paper The operating systems for the compute and I/O nodes of Blue Gene/L are among the components responsible for that scalability. Compute nodes are dedicated to running application processes, whereas I/O... [04 Aug 2008]
Memory and Network Bandwidth Aware Scheduling of Multiprogrammed Workloads on Clusters of SMPs
White Paper Symmetric Multiprocessors (SMPs), combined with modern interconnection technologies are commonly used to build cost-effective compute clusters. However, contention among processors for access to shared... [11 Jul 2008]
Dynamic Load Balancing for Distributed Search
White Paper Since these problems require significant computation, it distributes the search over a collection of compute nodes, such as active storage devices, intermediate processors and host computers. A key... [10 Jul 2008]
Scheduling to Overcome the Multi-Core Memory Bandwidth Bottleneck
White Paper However, while multi-core processors may solve many of the problems associated with compute cluster sprawl, they also present a new challenge: in some situations they cannot provide sufficient memory... [08 Jul 2008]
