....by restarting md on Alpha workstations from checkpoints created on the SGI workstations. For more detailed information on Dome s checkpointing methods, see [23] 6. Related work Although addressing similar aspects, Dome is not a resource management system like Condor [20] LoadLeveler [8], and DQS [10] These systems also deal with load balancing, fault tolerance, parallelism, and heterogeneity. However, they operate on a different level, overseeing the distribution and placement of processes rather than data over the network. Dome shares attributes with many other research ....

....users to opt for simpler and less effective placement mapping strategies or to abandon using a distributed approach entirely. Many recent efforts have explored various ways to support task placement in distributed environments. These efforts include basic load balancing systems such as LoadLeveler [7], Network Queuing System (NQS) 8] and Portable Batch System (PBS) 6] load sharing systems such as Condor CARMI [2,10,11] and Utopia [12] and distributed heterogeneous supercomputing (DHS) systems such as Superconcurrency Smartnet [3] and the Distributed Heterogeneous Supercomputing ....

....of this, the design of Utopia is tailored to 1. Unfortunately, many algorithms will likely be inappropriate or will need to be modified to work in a dynamic distributed environment. 2. Load balancing systems are a subset of load sharing systems. In load balancing systems, such as LoadLeveler [14], NQS [15] or its successor PBS [13] the objective function is designed to balance work across all available processors. Load sharing systems support other objective functions as well, e.g. minimizing completion time of an application. 3. Configurational, architectural and operating system ....

....this approach have been focusing on mechanisms and policies for identifying available resources in a cluster and allocating them to the queued jobs. A number of research and commercial systems of this type have been developed as a result of these efforts including Condor [2] DQS [3] LoadLeveler [4], and Utopia [5] Condor is unique among these systems because it has, from its inception, been designed to be opportunistic, utilizing idle cycles on privately owned workstations. To do this, Condor must monitor every workstation within the pool it controls to determine when resources are in use, ....

....Instead of providing a survey of a large number of systems, we briefly discuss the basic matching mechanisms of some resource management environments to highlight the differences between conventional resource allocation and matchmaking. Systems such as NQE [13] PBS [6] LSF [15] and LoadLeveler [1] process user submitted jobs by finding resources that have been identified either explicitly through a job control language, or implicitly by submitting the job to a particular queue that is associated with a set of resources. Customers of the system have to identify a specific queue to submit to ....

....PVM research group during the development of CARMI, and all of the changes required are integrated into the standard release of PVM as of version 3.3. The approach used by CARMI to support PVM applications is also used by other resource management systems including LSF [5] and IBM s LoadLeveler [6]. CARMI uses resource allocation and access services provided by the Condor distributed resource management system [4] Condor is an opportunistic, batch system which schedules applications on idle workstations. When an owner returns to a machine used by Condor, it removes all processes it has ....
