This paper proposes a novel way to use virtual memorymapped communication (VMMC) to reduce the failover time on clusters. With the VMMC model, applications’ virtual address spac...
Writing parallel applications for computational grids is a challenging task. To achieve good performance, algorithms designed for local area networks must be adapted to the differ...

We consider the impact of different communication architectures on the performability (performance + availability) of cluster-based servers. In particular, we use a combination of ...
Existing low-latency protocols make unrealistically strong assumptions about reliability. This allows them to achieve impressive performance, but also prevents this performance bei...
