High-Performance Sorting on Networks of Workstations

by Andrea C. Arpaci-Dusseau, Remzi H. Arpaci-Dusseau, David E. Culler, Joseph M. Hellerstein, David A. Patterson , 1997
"... We report the performance of NOW-Sort, a collection of sorting implementations on a Network of Workstations (NOW). We find that paraflel sorting on a NOW is competitive to sorting on the large-scale SMPS that have traditionally held the performance records. On a 64-node cluster, we sort 6.0 GB in ju ..."

A high-performance, portable implementation of the MPI message passing interface standard

by Ewing Lusk, Nathan Doss, Anthony Skjellum - Parallel Computing , 1996
"... MPI (Message Passing Interface) is a specification for a standard library for message passing that was defined by the MPI Forum, a broadly based group of parallel computer vendors, library writers, and applications specialists. Multiple implementations of MPI have been developed. In this paper, we d ..."
Abstract - Cited by 888 (67 self) - Add to MetaCart
describe MPICH, unique among existing implementations in its design goal of combining portability with high performance. We document its portability and performance and describe the architecture by which these features are simultaneously achieved. We also discuss the set of tools that accompany the free

TreadMarks: Distributed Shared Memory on Standard Workstations and Operating Systems

by Pete Keleher , Alan L. Cox, Sandhya Dwarkadas, Willy Zwaenepoel - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 1994 WINTER USENIX CONFERENCE , 1994
"... TreadMarks is a distributed shared memory (DSM) system for standard Unix systems such as SunOS and Ultrix. This paper presents a performance evaluation of TreadMarks running on Ultrix using DECstation-5000/240's that are connected by a 100-Mbps switch-based ATM LAN and a 10-Mbps Ethernet. Ou ..."
Abstract - Cited by 527 (17 self) - Add to MetaCart
. Our objective is to determine the efficiency of a user-level DSM implementation on commercially available workstations and operating systems. We achieved good speedups on the 8-processor ATM network for Jacobi (7.4), TSP (7.2), Quicksort (6.3), and ILINK (5.7). For a slightly modified version

Treadmarks: Shared memory computing on networks of workstations

by Cristiana Amza, Alan L. Cox, Hya Dwarkadas, Pete Keleher, Honghui Lu, Ramakrishnan Rajamony, Weimin Yu, Willy Zwaenepoel - Computer , 1996
"... TreadMarks supports parallel computing on networks of workstations by providing the application with a shared memory abstraction. Shared memory facilitates the transition from sequential to parallel programs. After identifying possible sources of parallelism in the code, most of the data structures ..."

Coda: A Highly Available File System for a Distributed Workstation Environment

by Mahadev Satyanarayanan, James J. Kistler, Puneet Kumar, Maria E. Okasaki, Ellen H. Siegel, David, C. Steere - In IEEE Transactions on Computers , 1990
"... Abstract- Coda is a file system for a large-scale distributed computing environment composed of Unix workstations. It provides resiliency to server and network failures through the use of two distinct but complementary mechanisms. One mechanism, server replication,stores copies of a file at multiple ..."

Parallel database systems: the future of high performance database systems

by David J. Dewitt, Jim Gray - Communications of the ACM , 1992
"... Abstract: Parallel database machine architectures have evolved from the use of exotic hardware to a software parallel dataflow architecture based on conventional shared-nothing hardware. These new designs provide impressive speedup and scaleup when processing relational database queries. This paper ..."

Abstract: Parallel database machine architectures have evolved from the use of exotic hardware to a software parallel dataflow architecture based on conventional shared-nothing hardware. These new designs provide impressive speedup and scaleup when processing relational database queries. This paper reviews the techniques used by such systems, and surveys current commercial and research systems. 1.

U-Net: A User-Level Network Interface for Parallel and Distributed Computing

by Thorsten Von Eicken, Anindya Basu, Vineet Buch, Werner Vogels - In Fifteenth ACM Symposium on Operating System Principles , 1995
"... The U-Net communication architecture provides processes with a virtual view of a network interface to enable userlevel access to high-speed communication devices. The architecture, implemented on standard workstations using offthe-shelf ATM communication hardware, removes the kernel from the communi ..."

Kerberos: An Authentication Service for Open Network Systems

by Jennifer G. Steiner, Clifford Neuman, Jeffrey I. Schiller - IN USENIX CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS , 1988
"... In an open network computing environment, a workstation cannot be trusted to identify its users correctly to network services. Kerberos provides an alternative approach whereby a trusted third-party authentication service is used to verify users’ identities. This paper gives an overview of the Kerb ..."

Internet time synchronization: The network time protocol

by D. L. Mills , 1989
"... This memo describes the Network Time Protocol (NTP) designed to distribute time information in a large, diverse internet system operating at speeds from mundane to lightwave. It uses a returnabletime architecture in which a distributed subnet of time servers operating in a self-organizing, hierarchi ..."
