    information Article Tree-Like Distributed Computation Environment with Shapp Library Tomasz Gałecki and Wiktor Bohdan Daszczuk * Institute of Computer Science, Warsaw University of Technology, 00-665 Warsaw, Poland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-22-234-78-12 Received: 30 January 2020; Accepted: 1 March 2020; Published: 3 March 2020 Abstract: Despite the rapidly growing computing power of computers, it is often insufficient to perform mass calculations in a short time, for example, simulation of systems for various sets of parameters, the searching of huge state spaces, optimization using ant or genetic algorithms, machine learning, etc. One can solve the problem of a lack of computing power through workload management systems used in local networks in order to use the free computing power of servers and workstations. This article proposes raising such a system to a higher level of abstraction: The use in the .NET environment of a new Shapp library that allows remote task execution using fork-like operations from Portable Operating System Interface for UNIX (POSIX) systems. The library distributes the task code, sending static data on which task force is working, and individualizing tasks. In addition, a convenient way of communicating distributed tasks running hierarchically in the Shapp library was proposed to better manage the execution of these tasks. Many different task group architectures are possible; we focus on tree-like calculations that are suitable for many problems where the range of possible parallelism increases as the calculations progress. Keywords: workload management; remote fork; distributed computations; task group communication 1.

When designing load-balanced topologies, it is important to account for the availability of the load balancer itself as well as the real servers behind it. Keepalived provides frameworks for both load balancing and high availability. The load balancing framework relies on the well-known and widely used Linux Virtual Server (IPVS) kernel module, which provides Layer 4 load balancing. Keepalived implements a set of health checkers to dynamically and adaptively maintain and manage load balanced server pools according to their health. High availability is achieved by the Virtual Redundancy Routing Protocol (VRRP). VRRP is a fundamental brick for router failover. In addition, keepalived implements a set of hooks to the VRRP finite state machine providing low-level and high-speed protocol interactions. Each Keepalived framework can be used independently or together to provide resilient infrastructures. In this context, load balancer may also be referred to as a director or an LVS router.

  • Research Report XEN Based HA Backup Environment
    Research Report XEN based HA backup environment Research Report for RP1 University of Amsterdam MSc in System and Network Engineering Class of 2006-2007 Peter Ruissen, Marju jalloh {pruissen,mjalloh}@os3.nl February 5, 2007 RP1: XEN based HA backup environment Abstract In this paper we will investigate the possibilities for High Availability (HA) failover mecha- nisms using the XEN virtualization technology and the requirements necessary for implementation on technical level. Virtualization technology is becoming increasingly popular in server environ- ments because it adds a layer of transparency and flexibility on top of a hardware layer, reduces recovery time and utilizes hardware resources more efficiently. Back in the 1960s, IBM developed virtualization support on a mainframe. Since then, many virtualization projects have become available for UNIX/Linux and other operating systems. The XEN project offers a novel technique known as paravirtualisation which brings a whole new range of possibilities to the table. Our tests showed that it is possible to use XEN in combination with Hearbeat to provide a HA environment. Even though combining XEN virtualization technology and High Availability software is still in the beginning stages at this moment, our research showed that XEN can be used with Heartbeat to realize a flexible, reliable and efficient HA environment.5.1 2 Contents 1 Project information 5 1.1 Assignment formulation . 5 1.2 Project Description . 5 1.3 Scope .............................................. 5 2 Virtualization technology 7 2.1 Forms of VT . 7 3 High availability concepts 9 3.1 Service availability . 10 3.2 Linux High Availability projects . 10 3.3 High Available Storage .
