NTCluster DataPump, Rivers, and Sorting
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report on the design, implementation, and performance of three distributed systems running on a cluster of WindowsNT nodes: DataPump, RiverSystem and NTClusterSort. The DataPump is a simple data transfer program that has twice the throughput and 75% of the CPU cost of the default copy methods. The RiverSystem redistributes data across a cluster using a collection of point-to-point data streams. NTClusterSort is a sample application based on the RiverSystem that performs distributed one pass and partial two pass sorts.

Irregular dunes, sediment sorting, and river orphodynamics
This research project focuses on modelling the large-scale morphodynamics of low-slope rivers dominated by mixed sediment, such as the Dutch part of the Rhine River. Usually we simply neglect the effects of sorting and variability in dune dimensions on the large-scale morphodynamics. This paper shows that these effects are not negligible.
متن کاملEquivalent roughness of gravel-bed rivers
The relation between the equivalent roughness and different grain size percentiles of the sediment in gravel-bed rivers was determined under the hypothesis that the vertical distribution of the flow velocity follows a logarithmic law. A set of 954 data points was selected from rivers with gravel size sediment or larger, with a non-sinuous alignment and free of vegetation or obstacles. According...
متن کاملPebble abrasion during fluvial transport: Experimental results and implications for the evolution of the sediment load along rivers
[1] In actively eroding landscapes, fluvial abrasion modifies the characteristics of the sediment carried by rivers and consequently has a direct impact on the ability of mountain rivers to erode their bedrock and on the characteristics and volume of the sediment exported from upland catchments. In this experimental study, we use a novel flume replicating hydrodynamic conditions prevailing in m...
متن کاملFocus on the Methods of Fluvial Migration Architecture
The migration architecture of the rivers has a significant influence on a wide range of disciplines. For example, the Geomorphology, the hydraulic, the climate, hydrologic and topographic characteristics and so on. Previous studies relating to the issue of fluvial migration include the literature of river channel patterns [1,2], deposition transport and grain size sorting [36], bend meandering ...
