An Adaptive Resource Monitoring Method for Distributed Heterogeneous Computing Environment

摘要

Resource performance monitoring is among the most active research topics in distributed computing. In this paper, we propose an adaptive resource monitoring method for applications in heterogeneous computing environment. According to the operating environment of distributed heterogeneous system and the changes of system resource workload, the method combines periodic pull mode with event-driven push mode to adaptively publish and retrieve system resource information. Preliminary experiments reveal that, by using our adaptive monitoring method, the efficiency of system monitoring is improved over that accrued by using regular monitoring approaches.
