The Design of an Efficient Portable Driver for Shared Memory Cluster Adapters
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe the design of an efficient portable driver for shared memory interconnects. The driver provides a foundation for interfacing to commodity software like clustered database servers. We present performance figures for a driver implementation that uses SCI through the PCI bus on standard PCs running Windows NT.

An Efficient LUT Design on FPGA for Memory-Based Multiplication
An efficient Lookup Table (LUT) design for memory-based multiplier is proposed. This multiplier can be preferred in DSP computation where one of the inputs, which is filter coefficient to the multiplier, is fixed. In this design, all possible product terms of input multiplicand with the fixed coefficient are stored directly in memory. In contrast to an earlier proposition Odd Multiple Storage ...
متن کاملOvercoming performance bottlenecks in using OpenMP on SMP clusters
This paper presents a new parallel programming environment called ParADE to enable easy, portable, and high-performance computing for SMP clusters. Different from the prior studies, ParADE separates the programming model from the execution model: it enables shared-address-space programming while it realizes hybrid execution of message-passing and shared-address-space. To overcome the poor perfo...
متن کاملCollective Memory as a Measure to Evaluate the Infill Architecture Innovations in Historic Contexts (Case Study: Historic Context of Imamzadeh Yahya in Tehran)
Historic contexts remind us of an era when cities were built based on the needs, goals, and preferences of their inhabitants. In other words, the mental world of both the builders and the inhabitants was closely interrelated. But by ignoring citizens' memories and interests and their mental needs, today's interventions with rapid developments within historic contexts have led to amnesia and the...
متن کاملBootstrapping and Startup of an object-oriented Operating System
The Plurix project implements an object-oriented Operating System (OS) for PC clusters. Network communication is implemented via the well-known Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) paradigm using restartable transactions and an optimistic synchronization scheme to implement memory consistency. The total OS (including kernel and drivers) reside in the persistent DSM – there is no distinction between ...
متن کاملDesign and Analysis of a Dynamically Reconfigurable Shared Memory Cluster
In recent years, the clusters have become a viable and less expensive alternative to multiprocessor systems. This paper proposes an architecture with a load balancing and a fault tolerant model for shared memory clusters. A task clustering algorithm, a Centralized dynamic load balancing model, a load balancing algorithm and a fault tolerant model are proposed for shared memory clusters. The res...
