The Peregrine RPC system provides performance very close to the optimum allowed by the hardware limits, while still supporting the complete RPC model. Implemented on an Ethernet network of Sun-3/60 workstations, a null RPC between two user-level threads ex ...
We evaluate the effect of processor speed, network characteristics, and software overhead on the performance of release-consistent software distributed shared memory. We examine five different protocols for implementing release consistency: eager update, e ...
Consistent checkpointing provides transparent fault tol erance for longrunning distributed applications. In this paper we describe performance measurements of an im plementation of consistent checkpointing. Our measure ments show that consistent checkp ...
A network multicomputer is a multiprocessor in which the processors are connected by general-purpose networking technology, in contrast to current distributed memory multiprocessors where a dedicated special-purpose interconnect is used. The advent of high ...
We describe a parallel implementation of a genetic linkage analysis program that achieves good speedups, even for analyses on a single pedigree and with a single starting recombination fraction vector. Our parallel implementation has been run on three diff ...
This paper describes the architecture of eNVy, a large non-volatile main memory storage system built primarily with Flash memory. eNVy presents its storage space as a linear, memory mapped array rather than as an emulated disk in order to provide an effici ...
We compare the performance of software-supported shared memory on a general-purpose network to hardware-supported shared memory on a dedicated interconnect. Up to eight processors, our results are based on the execution of a set of application programs on ...
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-base ...
We present a number of experiments showing that for compute-intensive applications executing in parallel on clusters of workstations, message logging has higher failure-free overhead than coordinated checkpointing. Message logging protocols, however, resul ...
Manetho is a new transparent rollback_recovery protocol for long-running distributed computations. It uses a novel combination of antecedence graph maintenance, uncoordinated check pointing, and sender-based message logging. Manetho simultaneously achieves ...
