Static scheduling of a program represented by a directed task graph on a multiprocessor
system to minimize the program completion time is a well-known problem in parallel …

The advent of very large scale integrated circuit technology has enabled the construction of
very complex and large interconnection networks. By most accounts, the next generation of …

We introduce a new interconnection network for large-scale distributed memory
multiprocessors called the hierarchical cubic network (HCN). We establish that the number …

Communication latency has become one of the determining factors for the performance of
parallel clusters. To design low-latency network topologies for high-performance computing …

In this paper, we present an interconnection structure, called the balanced hypercube, which
is a variation of the standard hypercube with desirable properties of strong connectivity …

Cluster management software comprises a plurality of cluster agents, with each cluster
agent associated with an HPC node including an integrated fabric and the cluster agent …

A method for computer cluster virtualization includes selecting a distributed application. A
policy associated with the distributed application is retrieved. One of a plurality of nodes is …

In one embodiment, a method for on-demand instantiation in a high-performance computing
(HPC) system includes receiving a connection request from a client specifying a first port …

A tutorial overview of how selected computer-vision-related algorithms can be mapped onto
reconfigurable parallel-processing systems is presented. The reconfigurable parallel …

The binary hypercube, or n-cube, has been widely used as the interconnection network in
parallel computers. However, the major drawback of the hypercube is the increase in the …
