The second information can be generated based on the tasks. The second information can be generated based on a number of dimensions of the tasks. The tasks can be assigned based on a minimization of a number of communications between the nodes.

Abstract: A quartz crystal resonator is coupled to an electronic circuit. A capacitive or resistive element is provided for adjusting a frequency of the quartz crystal resonator on activation or deactivation of a function of a circuit. Control is made according to a model of an expected variation of a temperature of the quartz crystal resonator.

Abstract: A quartz crystal resonator is connected to an array of switchable capacitors or resistors. The switched actuation of elements of the array is controlled by bits of a control word. At least one of the bits of the control word is controlled by pulse width modulation to effectuate a tuning of the oscillation frequency of the quartz crystal resonator.

Abstract: A system and method for managing the processing of work units being processed on a computer system having shared resources e.g. multiple processing cores, memory, bandwidth, etc. The system comprises a job scheduler for scheduling access to the shared resources for the work units, and an event trap for capturing resource related allocation events. The event trap is adapted to dynamically adjust the amount of availability associated with each shared resource identified by the resource related allocation event. The allocation event may define a resource release or a resource request. The event trap may increase the amount of availability for allocation events defining a resource release, and decrement the amount of availability for allocation events defining a resource request. The job scheduler allocates resources to the work units using a real time amount of availability of the shared resources in order to maximize a consumption of the shared resources.

Abstract: Apparatus and method to improve the speed, scalability, robustness and dynamism of multicast data transfers to remote computers. Many Grid Computing applications, such as Genomics, Proteomics, Seismic, Risk Management, etc., require a priori transfer of sets of files or other data to remote computers prior to processing taking place. Existing multicast and data transfer protocols are static and can not guarantee that all nodes will contain a copy of the replicated data or files. The fully distributed data transfer and data replication protocol of the invention permits transfers which minimize processing requirements on master transfer nodes by spreading work across the network. The result is higher scalability than current centralized protocols, more dynamism and allows fault-tolerance by distribution of functionality. The ability to distribute the protocol is simplified through our innovative symmetric-connectionless data transfer protocol.

Abstract: Embodiments of the presently claimed invention minimize the effect of Amdahl's Law with respect to multi-core processor technologies. This scheme is asynchronous across all of the cores of a processing system and is completely independent of other cores and other work units running on those cores. This scheme occurs on an as needed and just in time basis. As a result, the constraints of Amdahl's Law do not apply to a scheduling algorithm and the design is linearly scalable with the number of processing cores with no degradation due to the effects of serialization.

Abstract: Improved workload management is provided by introducing a global resource allocation control mechanism in a service layer, which may be located above or within the host operating system. The mechanism arbitrates how, when, and by which application resources of all types are being consumed.

Abstract: Distributed data transfer and data replication permits transfers that minimize processing requirements on master transfer nodes by spreading work across the network and automatically synchronizing with virtual machine management modules to perform virtual machine provisioning or update resulting in higher scalability, more dynamism, and allowing greater fault-tolerance by distribution of functionality. Data transfers may occur persistently such that the addition of new nodes or recovering of crashed nodes before or during the data transfer phase will automatically and asynchronously proceed to complete the missed data transfer phase and perform the virtual machine provisioning or update as required.
