from Quadrics in Research, Internet & Technology
Noncontiguous IO access is the main access / pattern in scientific applications. We / have designed an algorithm that supports zerocopy / noncontiguous PVFS2 IO using a software / scatter/gather mechanism over Quadrics. / To investigate what impact Quadrics scatter/gather mechanism can have on PVFS2 I...
Benefits of High Speed Interconnects to Cluster File Syst...
Cluster file systems and Storage Area Networks / (SAN) make use of network IO to achieve higher IO / bandwidth. Effective integration of networking mechanisms / is important to their performance. In this paper, / we perform an evaluation of a popular cluster file system, / Lustre, over two of the lead...
Measuring MPI Send and Receive Overhead and Application A...
Abstract. In evaluating new high-speed network interfaces, the usual metrics of latency and bandwidth are commonly measured and reported. There are numerous other message passing characteristics that can have a dramatic effect on application performance that should be analyzed when evaluating a n...
