The Story Behind Midnight, a Part Time High Performance Cluster
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present the creation process and the purpose behind the Midnight cluster. It is disguised as a computer laboratory during the day, but turns into a high performance compute cluster during the night. The main focus of this paper is on the basic issues with creating a part time compute cluster. The Midnight cluster was constructed to serve both as a CPU harvester and as a platform for further studies. The main goal of our upcoming research is to ev aluate different methods for handling shapechange and process management on the cluster, and how these factors affect running processes, stability and performance.

The present study attempts to investigate the role of Sufism in development of story-telling, naqqāli (narrating of important old Iranian stories) and Rawzahkhāni (telling story of mourning for Imams) arranged in three sections. The first part of the article is intended to inspect story-telling as a social practice of Sufism. It also expresses the reasons behind Safavid Scholars’ opposition wit...
متن کاملSeismic Performance of Torsionally Stiff and Flexible Single Story Buildings Designed Based on Iranian Seismic Code(Standard 2800)
This paper examines differences in performances of a range of torsionally stiff and flexible single story buildings designed with the provisions of Iranian Standard 2800. Seismic nonlinear dynamic time history behavior of eight building models subjected to seven horizontal bi-directional design spectra compatible ground motions are investigated. These models cover a wide range of very torsional...

Propeller is one of the main propulsors for marine vehicles which produces thrust to overcome the resistance of the ship. Propeller works in the place behind the ship where the flow is non-uniform and with three dimensional velocities, so it causes the fluctuating thrust. The first part of this paper employs the boundary element method (BEM) to evaluate and analyze the hydrodynamic performance ...
متن کاملSeismic Retrofitting of Steel Frames with Buckling Restrained and Ordinary Concentrically Bracing Systems with Various Strain Hardening and Slenderness Ratios
The present study assesses the seismic performance of steel moment resisting frames (SMFs) retrofitted with different bracing systems. Two structural configurations were utilized: ordinary concentrically braces (OCBFs), buckling-restrained braces (BRBFs). A 7-story and 18-story steel perimeter SMFs were designed with insufficient lateral stiffness to satisfy code drift limitations in high seism...
