GENESIS: an efficient, transparent and easy to use cluster operating system

摘要

Present operating systems are not built to support parallel computing-they do not provide Services to manage parallelism. i.e., to globally manage parallel processes and computational Resources. The cluster operating environments that are used to assist the execution of parallel Applications do not provide support for both programming paradigms, message passing(MP) Or distributed shared memory(DSM)-they are mainly offered as separate components imple- Mented at the user level as library and independent server processes. Due to poor operating Systems users must deal with clusters as a set of independent computers rather than to see this Cluster as a single powerful computer.
