    Network Queuing System, Version 2.0 (1993)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: Network Queuing System (NQS) computer program is versatile batch- and device-queuing facility for single UNIX computer or group of computers in network. User invokes NQS collection of user-space programs to move batch and device jobs freely among different computers in network. Provides facilities for remote queuing, request routing, remote status, queue-status controls, batch-request resource quota limits, and remote output return. Revision of NQS provides for creation, deletion, addition, and setting of complexes aiding in limiting number of requests handled at one time. Also has improved device-oriented queues along with some revision of displays. Written in C language.

    JSD: Parallel Job Accounting on the IBM SP2 (1995)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-10
    Description: The IBM SP2 is one of the most promising parallel computers for scientific supercomputing - it is fast and usually reliable. One of its biggest problems is a lack of robust and comprehensive system software. Among other things, this software allows a collection of Unix processes to be treated as a single parallel application. It does not, however, provide accounting for parallel jobs other than what is provided by AIX for the individual process components. Without parallel job accounting, it is not possible to monitor system use, measure the effectiveness of system administration strategies, or identify system bottlenecks. To address this problem, we have written jsd, a daemon that collects accounting data for parallel jobs. jsd records information in a format that is easily machine- and human-readable, allowing us to extract the most important accounting information with very little effort. jsd also notifies system administrators in certain cases of system failure.

    NAS Parallel Benchmarks Results 3-95 (1995)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-10
    Description: The NAS Parallel Benchmarks (NPB) were developed in 1991 at NASA Ames Research Center to study the performance of parallel supercomputers. The eight benchmark problems are specified in a "pencil and paper" fashion, i.e., the complete details of the problem are given in a NAS technical document. Except for a few restrictions, benchmark implementors are free to select the language constructs and implementation techniques best suited for a particular system. In this paper, we present new NPB performance results for the following systems: (a) Parallel-Vector Processors: CRAY C90, CRAY T90 and Fujitsu VPP500; (b) Highly Parallel Processors: CRAY T3D, IBM SP2-WN (Wide Nodes), and IBM SP2-TN2 (Thin Nodes 2); and (c) Symmetric Multiprocessors: Convex Exemplar SPPIOOO, CRAY J90, DEC Alpha Server 8400 5/300, and SGI Power Challenge XL (75 MHz). We also present sustained performance per dollar for Class B LU, SP and BT benchmarks. We also mention future NAS plans for the NPB.

    The Performance of the NAS HSPs in 1st Half of 1994 (1995)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-10
    Description: During the first six months of 1994, the NAS (National Airspace System) 16-CPU Y-MP C90 Von Neumann (VN) delivered an average throughput of 4.045 GFLOPS while the ACSF (Aeronautics Consolidated Supercomputer Facility) 8-CPU Y-MP C90 Eagle averaged 1.658 GFLOPS. The VN rate represents a machine efficiency of 26.3% whereas the Eagle rate corresponds to a machine efficiency of 21.6%. VN displayed a greater efficiency than Eagle primarily because the stronger workload demand for its CPU cycles allowed it to devote more time to user programs and less time to idle. An additional factor increasing VN efficiency was the ability of the UNICOS 8.0 Operating System to deliver a larger fraction of CPU time to user programs. Although measurements indicate increasing vector length for both workloads, insufficient vector lengths continue to hinder HSP (High Speed Processor) performance. To improve HSP performance, NAS should continue to encourage the HSP users to modify their codes to increase program vector length.
