Augernome & XtremWeb: Monte Carlos computation on a global computing platform
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present XtremWeb, a Global Computing platform used to generate monte carlos showers in Auger [? ]. XtremWeb main goal, as a Global Computing platform, is to compute distributed applications using idle time of widely interconnected machines. It is especially dedicated to -but not limited tomulti-parameters applications such as monte carlos computations; its security mechanisms ensuring not only hosts integrity but also results certification and its fault tolerant features, encouraged us to test it and, finally, to deploy it as to support our CPU needs to simulate showers. We first introduce Auger computing needs and how Global Computing could help. We then detail XtremWeb architecture and goals. The fourth and last part presents the profits we have gained to choose this platform. We conclude on what could be done next.

متن کاملXtremWeb: Building an Experimental Platform for Global Computing
Global Computing achieves highly distributed computations by harvesting a very large number of unused computing resources connected to the Internet. Although the basic techniques for Global Computing are well understood, several issues remain unadressed, such as the ability to run a large variety of applications, economical models for resource management, performance models accounting for WAN a...
متن کاملXtremWeb: A Generic Global Computing System
Global Computing achieves high throughput computing by harvesting a very large number of unused computing resources connected to the Internet. This parallel computing model targets a parallel architecture defined by a very high number of nodes, poor communication performance and continuously varying resources. The unprecedented scale of the Global Computing architecture paradigm requires to rev...
متن کاملA Scheduling Algorithm for High Performance Peer-to-Peer Platform
This paper describes a scheduling algorithm used to execute parallel and distributed applications on a Global Computing (GC) environment, called XtremWeb-CH (XWCH). XWCH is an improved version of a GC tool called XtremWeb (XW). XWCH is an enrichment of XW allowing it to match P2P concepts: distributed scheduling, distributed communication and development of symmetrical models. The scheduling al...
متن کاملLarge Scale Linear System Global Computing Resolution with GMRES Method
Grid computing attains high throughput computing by making use of a very large amount of unexploited computing resources. We present a typical parallel method GMRES to solve large sparse linear systems by the use of a lightweight GRID system XtremWeb. This global computing platform, just as many popular GRID systems, is mainly devoted to multi-parameters generic applications. We have implemente...
