EARTH 3'1 SMP LAYOUT

1
EARTH 3.1 SMP LAYOUT

• POSIX-THREADS and standard TCP/IP sockets give
  portability
• Pthreads modules overlapping computation and
  communication
• SMP support without any locks, all operation
  accessing shared resources serialized by center
  managers like token manager in SM, SU in EM
• Satisfying remote data and token request
  immediately
• Internal token balancer balances tokens among
  local EMs, and outside load balancer try to
  balance work load among all physical nodes

Plan for benchmarking to test EARTH 3.1
Preliminary Results

• Existing Benchmarks
• N-Queen, Fibonacci, tomcatv, cannon,
  Ping-Pong, Paraffins, ATGC
• New Benchmark
• HMMER PFAM
• Porting THREADED-C 1.0 benchmarks
• shortpath, wave2d, gauss elimination, pivot,
  parallel Astar, etc.
