....DIMMs cost 600 [21] Second, commodity priced machines have a limit on the amount of memory that can be installed; server class machines that can have larger memories come at a substantial premium. Several research projects have proposed using memory of idle workstations for hosting guest data [7, 8, 11, 13, 20, 22, 27]. Iftode et al. [13] propose extending the memory hierarchy of multicomputers by introducing a remote memory server layer; Schilit and Duchamp [23] investigated the use of remote memory paging for diskless portable machines; Dahlin et al. [8] and Sarkar et al. [22] propose schemes to use idle memory ....

.... with multiple architectures [19, 27] support ecient checkpointing [17] support limited forms of parallelism [2, 4, 6, 7, 24, 25, 26] and minimize network demand [5] Furthermore, opportunistic scheduling ideas have also been applied to harvesting idle remote memory in distributed memory systems [3, 9, 10, 12, 15, 23, 28, 29]. The primary goal of this past work has been to develop mechanisms to maximize throughput and add user functionality. Little work has been done on how best to schedule batch jobs. As shown from time sharing systems, the scheduling algorithm can have a signi cant impact on user satisfaction. One ....

....of this experiment was 487. 5 Other Related work In this paper, we considered the use of idle workstations as compute servers. With the current growth in the number and the size of data intensive tasks, exploiting idle workstations for their memory could be an attractive option. Dahlin et al. [7] study the feasibility of using idle memory to increase the effective file cache size. Feely et al. [11] describe a low level global memory management system that uses idle memory to back up not just file pages but all of virtual memory as well. They show that this scheme is able to use idle memory ....

....the expense associated with large memory machines. This is especially attractive for programs with transient peaks in their memory requirements or for data intensive programs that are run infrequently. Several research projects have proposed using memory of idle workstations for hosting guest data [5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 14, 16, 21]. Iftode et al.

....based approach to study the feasibility of remote caching architectures. Their study uses synthetic models of both memory availability and program behavior. It is difficult to draw conclusions about behavior of real data intensive programs on real workstation pools from their work. Dahlin et al. [8] and Sarkar et al. [20] propose schemes to use idle memory to increase the effective file cache size. Both these studies use the Sprite distributed file system traces [4] to determine both memory availability and program behavior. The Sprite traces were acquired from a cluster of workstations used ....
