Recent advances in computing architectures and networking are bringing parallel computing systems to the masses so increasing the number of potential users of these kinds of systems. In particular, two important technological evolutions are…
The Smart Grid (SG) concept presented an unprecedented opportunity to move the energy sector to more availability, reliability, and efficiency to improve our economic and environmental conditions. Renewable energy sources (Solar & Wind) are…
Obtaining high performance in IO intensive applications requires systems that support reliable fast transfer, data replication, and caching. In this paper we present an architecture designed for supporting IO intensive applications in…
Utility Computing has facilitated the creation of new markets that has made it possible to realize the long held dream of delivering IT as a Utility. Even though utility computing is in its nascent stage today, the proponents of utility…
Over the past few years, The idea of edge computing has seen substantial expansion in both academic and industrial circles. This computing approach has garnered attention due to its integrating role in advancing various state-of-the-art…
The emergence of the GRID architecture and related tools will have a large impact in the operation and design of present and future large clusters. We present here the ongoing efforts to equip the Linux Farm at the RHIC Computing Facility…
Computer vision applications, especially those using augmented reality technology, are becoming quite popular in mobile devices. However, this type of application is known as presenting significant demands regarding resources. In order to…
As grids are in essence heterogeneous, dynamic, shared and distributed environments, managing these kinds of platforms efficiently is extremely complex. A promising scalable approach to deal with these intricacies is the design of…
We outline design and lines of development of autonomous tools for the computing Grid management, monitoring and optimization. The management is proposed to be based on the notion of utility. Grid optimization is considered to be…
The idea of changing our energy system from a hierarchical design into a set of nearly independent microgrids becomes feasible with the availability of small renewable energy generators. The smart microgrid concept comes with several…
Cloud computing has achieved an unbelievable adoption response rate but still its infancy stage is not over. It is an emerging paradigm and amazingly gaining popularity. The size of the market shared of the applications provided by cloud…
After decades of engineering development and infrastructural investment, Internet connections have become commodity product in many countries, and Internet scale "cloud computing" has started to compete with traditional software business…
Registration and management of users in a large scale Grid computing environment presents new challenges that are not well addressed by existing protocols. Within a single Virtual Organization (VO), thousands of users will potentially need…
Mobile devices gather the communication capabilities as no other gadget. Plus, they now comprise a wider set of applications while still maintaining reduced size and weight. They have started to include accessibility features that enable…
The most popular heterogeneous many-core platform, the CPU+GPU combination, has received relatively little attention in operating systems research. This platform is already widely deployed: GPUs can be found, in some form, in most desktop…
Cloud computing is penetrating into various domains and environments, from theoretical computer science to economy, from marketing hype to educational curriculum and from R&D lab to enterprise IT infrastructure. Yet, the currently…
There is a growing need for low latency for many devices and users. The traditional cloud computing paradigm can not meet this requirement, legitimizing the need for a new paradigm. Edge computing proposes to move computing capacities to…
Technology is becoming increasingly pervasive. At present, the system components working together to provide functionality, be they purely software or with a physical element, tend to operate within silos, bound to a particular application…
In this paper we introduce and describe the highly concurrent xDFS file transfer protocol and examine its cross-platform and cross-language implementation in native code for both Linux and Windows in 32 or 64-bit multi-core processor…
In this proceedings we discuss the motivation, implementation details, and performance of a new physics code base called Grid. It is intended to be more performant, more general, but similar in spirit to QDP++\cite{QDP}. Our approach is to…
