However, some application and architectural characteristics may severely limit performance gains. For instance, tasks with fine granularity, huge data files to be transmitted to or from data repositories, and tasks which share common input files are examples of such characteristics that may cause poor performance. Bottlenecks may also appear due to the existence of a centralized controller in the master-slave architecture, or centralized data repositories within the system. This paper shows how system efficiency decreases under such conditions. To overcome such limitations, a hierarchical strategy for file distribution which aims at improving the system capacity of delivering input files to processing nodes is proposed and assessed. Such a strategy arranges the processors in a tree topology, clusters tasks that share common input files together, and maps such groups of tasks to clusters of processors. By means of such strategy, significant improvements in the application scalability can be achieved","PeriodicalId":419226,"journal":{"name":"Sixth IEEE International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid (CCGRID'06)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116369521","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}

The growing deployments of clusters to solve critical and computationally intensive problems imply that survivability is a key requirement through which the systems must possess Reliability, Availability, Serviceability and Security (RASS) together. In this paper, we conduct a feasibility study on SELinux and the existing cluster-aware RASS framework by C.B. Leangsuksun et al. (2005). We start by understanding a semantic mapping from cluster-wide security policy to individual nodes' mandatory access control (MAC). Through our existing RASS framework, we then construct an experimental cluster-aware SELinux system. Finally, we demonstrate feasibility of mapping distributed security policy (DSP) to SELinux equivalences and the cohesiveness of cluster enforcements, which, we believe, leads to a layered technique and thus becomes highly survivable","PeriodicalId":419226,"journal":{"name":"Sixth IEEE International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid (CCGRID'06)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121276935","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}
