Cluster Approach to High Performance Computing
نویسنده
چکیده
The High Performance Computing (HPC) allows scientists and engineers to deal with very complex problems using fast computer hardware and specialized software. Since often these problems require hundreds or even thousands of processor hours to complete, an approach, based on the use of supercomputers, has been traditionally adopted. Recent tremendous increase in a speed of PC-type computers opens relatively cheap and scalable solution for HPC using cluster technologies. Here we discuss basics of cluster technology and present an example of cluster solution, implemented at the Institute of Solid State Physics of the University of Latvia within the Latvian SuperCluster (LASC) project.

متن کاملAutonomous Drug-Encapsulated Nanoparticles: Towards a Novel Non-Invasive Approach to Prevent Atherosclerosis
Introduction This paper proposes the concept of autonomous drug-encapsulated nanoparticle (ADENP) as a novel non-invasive approach to prevent atherosclerosis. ADENP consists of three simple units of sensor, controller (computing), and actuator. The hardware complexity of ADENP is much lower than most of the nanorobots, while the performance is maintained by the synergism in the swarm architectu...

This paper parallelizes the spatial pyramid match kernel (SPK) implementation. SPK is one of the most usable kernel methods, along with support vector machine classifier, with high accuracy in object recognition. MATLAB parallel computing toolbox has been used to parallelize SPK. In this implementation, MATLAB Message Passing Interface (MPI) functions and features included in the toolbox help u...
متن کاملAssessment Methodology for Anomaly-Based Intrusion Detection in Cloud Computing
Cloud computing has become an attractive target for attackers as the mainstream technologies in the cloud, such as the virtualization and multitenancy, permit multiple users to utilize the same physical resource, thereby posing the so-called problem of internal facing security. Moreover, the traditional network-based intrusion detection systems (IDSs) are ineffective to be deployed in the cloud...
