This paper describes the rationale for heterogeneity in a multicomputer and gives a typical example of a heterogeneous system in the form of a RACE multicomputer composed of a mixture of Analog Devices' SHARC 21060 and the IBM/Motorola/Apple PowerPC 603p processors. These two processors have complementary attributes, and the advantages and limitations of each are described. Multicomputers generally implement a sequence of different processing algorithms. The \"optimal\" processor that maximizes throughput at each step in the processing flow is generally a function of the algorithm to be executed at that step. Other factors that also influence the optimal mix of processors in a heterogeneous multicomputer include physical processing density, hardware cost, and ease of programmability.","PeriodicalId":286909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Sixth Heterogeneous Computing Workshop (HCW'97)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116691408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Subtask data relocation is defined as selecting the sources for their needed data items. This study focuses on theoretical issues for data relocation using a stochastic HC model. It is assumed that multiple independent subtasks of an application program can be executed concurrently on different machines whenever possible. A stochastic model for HC is proposed, in which the computation times of subtasks and communication times for inter-machine data transfers can be random variables. The optimization problem for finding the optimal matching, scheduling, and data relocation schemes to minimize the total execution time of an application program is defined based on this stochastic HC model. The optimization criteria and search space for the above optimization problem are described. It is proven that a greedy algorithm based approach will generate the optimal data relocation scheme with respect to any fixed matching and scheduling schemes. This result indicates that a greedy algorithm based approach is the best strategy for developing data relocation heuristics in practice.","PeriodicalId":286909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Sixth Heterogeneous Computing Workshop (HCW'97)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127281191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In other words, the user can specify (dynamically) the topology of his application, and the mpC programming environment will use this (topological) information in run time to ensure the efficient execution of the application on any particular DMM.

The user's view of an ideal metacomputer is that of a powerful monolithic virtual machine. The implementor's view, on the other hand, is that of a variety of interacting services implemented in a scalable and extensible manner. We present MOL, the Metacomputer Online environment. In contrast to other metacomputing environments, MOL is not based on specific programming models or tools. It has rather been designed as an open, extensible software system comprising a variety of software modules, each of them specialized in serving one specific task such as resource scheduling, job control, task communication, task migration, user interface, and much more. All of these modules exist and are working. The main challenge in the design of MOL lies in the specification of suitable, generic interfaces for the effective interaction between the modules.","PeriodicalId":286909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Sixth Heterogeneous Computing Workshop (HCW'97)","volume":"28 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120895397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A trend of supporting fault-tolerance in distributed computing systems is to incorporate fault-tolerance into applications at low cost, in terms of both run time performance and programming effort required to construct reliable application software. We present an approach for developing efficient reliable distributed applications for heterogeneous computing systems. We propose a library prototype, called H-Libra, to support fault-tolerance in heterogeneous systems with low run-time cost. Fault-tolerance is based on distributed consistent checkpointing and rollback-recovery integrated with a user-level network communication protocol. By employing novel mechanisms, minimum communication overhead is involved for taking a consistent distributed checkpoint and catching messages in transit during a checkpoint. By providing fault-tolerance transparency and a simple, easy to use high-level message-passing interface, H-Libra simplifies the development of reliable heterogeneous distributed applications.","PeriodicalId":286909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Sixth Heterogeneous Computing Workshop (HCW'97)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116828782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given that subtask execution times are exponentially distributed an exponential distribution can be generated for the overall completion time. In particular the enabling functions and rate functions used to specify the SPN model provide needed versatility to integrate processor heterogeneity, task priorities, allocation schemes, communication costs, and other factors characteristic of a HCS into a comprehensive performance analysis. The manner in which these parameters are incorporated into the SPN allows the model to be transformed into a testbed for optimization schemes and heuristics.

This study focuses on a particular application domain (iterative automatic target recognition tasks) and an associated specific class of dedicated heterogeneous hardware platforms. The contribution of this paper is that, for the computational environment considered, it presents a methodology for real-time on-line input-data dependent remappings of the application subtasks to the processors in the heterogeneous hardware platform using previously stored off-line statically determined mappings. That is, the operating system will be able to decide during the execution of the application whether or not to perform a remapping based on information generated by the application from its input data. If the decision is to remap, the operating system will be able to select a previously derived and stored mapping that is appropriate for the given state of the application (e.g., the number of objects it is currently tracking).","PeriodicalId":286909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Sixth Heterogeneous Computing Workshop (HCW'97)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126545938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
