چکیده

In this paper we describe a virtual cluster based on the Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) as an alternative to VMWare and Xen. Speci cally we show how the virtual cluster is built and tailored to t virtual organizations. The technique presented in this paper, known as the Virtual Organization Cluster Model, shows great potential for cloud computing. In our implementation, we used a minimalist installation of Slackware Linux 12 on 14 compute nodes, ensuring minimal host overhead. Our prototype Virtual Organization Cluster is composed of 28 virtual computes nodes, each running CentOS 5.1 with Condor, and MPI. Results of testing the prototype were encouraging, with the exception of network performance.
