  • Investigating the Feasibility of an MPI-Like Library Implemented in .Net Using Only Fully Managed Code
    Investigating the Feasibility of an MPI-like Library Implemented in .Net Using Only Fully Managed Code Daniel Holmes MSc in High Performance Computing The University of Edinburgh Year of Presentation: 2007 Abstract The .Net development platform and the C# language, in particular, offer many benefits to programmers including increased productivity, security, reliability and robustness, as well as standards-based application portability and cross-language inter-operation. The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a standardised high performance computing paradigm with efficient, frequently-used implementations in many popular languages. A partial implementation of McMPI, the first MPI-like library to be targeted at .Net and written in pure C#, is presented. It is sufficiently complete to demonstrate typical application code and to evaluate relative performance. Although the effective bandwidth for large messages (over 100 Kbytes) using 100Mbit/s Ethernet is good, the overheads introduced by .Net remoting and object serialisation are shown to result in high latency and to limit bandwidth to 166Mbit/s when using a 1Gbit/s Ethernet interconnection. A possible resolution that still uses pure C#, i.e. using .Net sockets, is proposed but not implemented. Contents Chapter 1.

My primary research area is Software Engineering, focusing on development tools, language design, program analysis, and empirical studies. Education 9/2003–5/2008 PhD in Computer Science, Columbia University, New York, NY GPA: 4.0 Thesis: An Empirical Assessment of the Crosscutting Concern Problem Advisor: Alfred Aho 5/2001 MS in Computer Science, Columbia University, New York, NY GPA: 4.0 4/1995 Dual BS in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, GPA: 3.1 Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL Research Experience 6/2005–present Research Assistant, Columbia University, Prof. Alfred Aho, New York, NY Performed pioneering research on the crosscutting concern problem, i.e., the inability to effectively modularize the concerns (requirements, features, etc.) of a program. Created model to formalize the problem, methodology and tool (Java, 19,000 lines) for locating code related to a concern, and metrics to quantify the amount of crosscutting. Obtained empirical evidence indicating that as crosscutting increases so do defects. Created tools and language extensions for reducing crosscutting concerns, including Wicca (C#, 37,000 lines), the first dynamic aspect-oriented programming system to support source-level debugging, edit-and-continue, and fine-grained weaving using statement-level annotations. 6/2006–8/2006 Research Intern, Microsoft Research, Programming Languages and Tools Group, Redmond, WA Created program dependency analysis and visualization tool that refactors classes into open classes to eliminate compile-time dependency cycles.

Nach einem Blick auf die WPF im .NET Framework und einem Schnelldurchlauf durch die Windows- Programmiergeschichte erfahren Sie mehr über die Architektur und Konzepte der WPF. 1 Einführung in die WPF 1.1 Die WPF und das .NET Framework Mit der Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) steht seit der Einführung des .NET Frameworks 3.0 gegen Ende des Jahres 2006 ein modernes Programmiermodell für die Entwicklung von Windows- und Webbrowser-Anwendungen zur Verfügung. Als Teil des .NET Frameworks ab Version 3.0 ist die WPF Microsofts strategische Plattform für die Entwicklung von Benutzeroberflächen unter Windows. 1.1.1 Die WPF im .NET Framework 3.0 Das Ende 2006 eingeführte .NET Framework 3.0 besteht aus den Komponenten des .NET Frameworks 2.0 und vier umfangreichen Programmiermodellen. Dies sind WPF, Win- dows Communication Foundation (WCF), Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) und Win- dows CardSpace (WCS). Das auf Windows Vista standardmäßig vorinstallierte .NET Framework 3.0 wird auch auf Windows Server 2003 und Windows XP unterstützt (siehe Abbildung 1.1). Mit den vier eingeführten Programmiermodellen WPF, WCF, WF und WCS stellte Microsoft erstmals größere, in Managed Code implementierte Bibliotheken zur Verfügung. Für die Entwick- lung von Benutzeroberflächen unter Windows stellt die WPF das zukünftige Program- miermodell dar. 39 1538.book Seite 40 Mittwoch, 9.
