“…This includes additional implementation such as topology-aware implementations of the neighborhood communication as presented in [11] as well as using additional transfer primitives such as persistent request operations. Second, initial measurements in less reliable environments than the ones used throughout this paper indicate, that the filtering of the measurements has a high impact on the decision made in the following steps.…”

Abstract-This paper introduces the Abstract Data and Communication Library (ADCL). ADCL is an application level communication library aiming at providing the highest possible performance for application level communication operations on a given execution environment. The library provides for each communication pattern a large number of implementations and incorporates a runtime selection logic in order to choose the implementation leading to the highest performance of the application on the current platform. Two different runtime selection algorithms are currently available within ADCL: the library can either apply a brute force search strategy which tests all available implementations of a given communication pattern; alternatively, a heuristic relying on attributes characterizing an implementation has been developed in order to speed up the runtime decision procedure. The paper also evaluates the performance of a finite difference code using ADCL on an AMD Opteron cluster using InfiniBand and Gigabit Ethernet interconnects.

“…The AL includes an API to define the details of the protocol that depend on the different applications and communication libraries. Currently, the CrossBroker provides Application Launchers for two MPI implementations created with this API, namely PACX-MPI [9] and MPICH-G2 [8]. The API allows the definition of:…”

The CrossBroker is a Grid Resource Management System that provides transparent and reliable support for the execution of parallel and interactive applications on a Grid environment. In this chapter, we outline the architecture of our system and describe the key mechanisms responsible for an efficient and reliable execution of parallel and interactive applications. We also present the job description language that allows the user to take profit from our system. The extensible and orthogonal mechanisms proposed give support for co-allocation of resources for various MPI implementations and the use of several tools and services for interaction with the application while running in a remote system.
