Enhancements to PVM's BEOLIN Architecture

نویسنده

  • Paul L. Springer
چکیده

Version 3.4.3 of PVM had previously been enhanced by the addition of a new architecture, BEOLIN, which allowed a PVM user to abstract a Beowulf class computer with a private network to appear as a single system, visible to the outside world, which could spawn tasks on different internal nodes. This new enhancement to PVM handles the case where each node on the Beowulf system may be composed of multiple processors. In this case, the software will, at the user’s request, spawn multiple jobs to each node, to be run on the individual processors.

Architectural Enhancements to Support Digital Signal Processing and Public-Key Cryptography

In recent years, every major micro-processor architecture was extended by a number of special instructions to accelerate the processing of DSP or multimedia workloads. Even simple processors developed for the embedded systems field are nowadays equipped with fast multiply/accumulate (MAC) units to provide greater performance in processing DSP/multimedia kernels. In the present paper, we investi...

An Enhanced Transputer Server Architecture

This paper describes an Enhanced Transputer Server Architecture (ETSA). The purpose of ETSA is to provide a more flexible and sophisticated environment for interacting with transputer systems than is provided by existing server models. ETSA is a network-based architecture that permits the user of a transputer system to be remote from that system. ETSA supports arbitrary server communication pro...
