MRI: Acquisition of Networked Heterogeneous Computer Systems

曾，西南路易斯安那州年丰大学核磁共振：网络异构计算机系统的获取本提案涉及网络异构计算机系统的获取，将专门用于支持与计算机和信息科学与工程相关的研究活动。这个提议的主要研究仪器将使实验研究对三个正在进行的研究项目至关重要：积极的分布式共享内存（DSM）实施；有效的同步机制，以及可恢复的DSM。它包括台式电脑、一台ALR革命服务器、SUN工作站和一台SUN企业服务器，它们通过一台Myrinet LAN交换机和3Com的快速以太网交换机相互连接。该仪器还将使计算机体系结构和分布式处理课程的学生获得实践经验，激发学生对计算机系统研究的兴趣。参与正在进行的研究项目的初级研究生研究助理将被鼓励利用这一仪器来实现积极的研究议程。

EIA-9871315 Tzeng, Nian-Feng University of Southwestern Louisiana MRI: Acquisition of Networked Heterogeneous Computer Systems This proposal pertains to acquisition of networked heterogeneous computer systems, which will be dedicated to support research activities pertinent to computer and information science and engineering. This proposed major research instrumentation will enable experimental studies essential to three ongoing research projects: aggressive distributed shared memory (DSM) implementation; effective synchronization mechanism, and recoverable DSM. It includes desktop PCs, an ALR Revolution Server, SUN workstations and a SUN Enterprise server, which are interconnected by a Myrinet LAN switch and a fast Ethernet switch from 3Com. The instrumentation will also allow students in computer architecture and distributed processing courses to gain hands-on experience, stimulating students' interest in computer system research. Entry-level graduate research assistants involved in the on-going research projects will be encouraged to take advantage of this instrumentation for realizing aggressive research agenda.
