This might be of interest to the people on this list who also happen to
frequent the Technion.

Subject: [Haifux] Computer Engineering Seminar
Computer Engineering Seminar
You are invited to attend a lecture by
Professor Amnon Barak

The Hebrew University of Jerusalem

On:
The MOSIX Resource Sharing Algorithms
for Efficient Cluster Computing
MOSIX is a software tool for supporting cluster computing with Linux.
The core of MOSIX are kernel-level, adaptive load-balancing and memory
ushering algorithms that are geared for maximal performance,
overhead-free scalability and ease-of-use. These algorithms are designed
to respond on-line to variations in the resource usage among the nodes
by migrating processes from one node to another, preemptively and
trans-parently, to balance the load and to prevent memory depletion at
any node. The MOSIX software allows a cluster of PCs (workstations and
servers) to work cooperatively as if part of a single system.
MOSIX uses competitive algorithms for on-line distribution and
redis-tribution of the workload and the resources in order to improve
the overall performance of a computing-cluster of any size. MOSIX
conve-niently supports a multi-user time-sharing environment for the
execu-tion of both sequential and parallel tasks.
The talk gives an overview of MOSIX for Linux and its resource sharing
algorithms.
The lecture will take place
On Thursday, 30.1.2002 at 12:30-14:30
in Room 353
Electrical Eng. Building
Technion City
