The Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) model has been widely used in multi-core clusters as an alternative to MPI. Among the widespread use is Unified Parallel C (UPC). Previous research has shown that UPC performance is comparable with MPI, however in certain cases UPC require hand-tuning techniques such as pre-fetching and privatized pointers-to-shared to improve the performance. In this paper we reviews, evaluate and analyze the performance pattern between UPC Naive, UPC optimize and MPI on two different multi-core clusters architecture. We focus our study using matrix multiplication as the benchmark and perform our experimental on two distributed memory machine;Cray XE6 with Gemini interconnects and Sun Cluster with Infiniband interconnects. We provide analysis on each core execution time to understand the pattern of communication for both machines. We also demonstrate the gaps between naive and optimized are depends on the compiler with its associate distributed memory machine. We also observed unnecessary optimization for certain programs related to HPC architecture and compiler.

In this paper, we investigate a decentralized output synchronization problem of heterogeneous linear systems. Motivated by recent results in the literature, we develop a self-triggered output broadcasting policy for the interconnected systems. In other words, each system broadcasts its outputs only when necessary in order to achieve output synchronization. Consequently, the control signal of each system is updated based on currently available (but outdated) information received from the neighbors. These broadcasting time instants adapt to the current communication topology. For a fixed topology, our broadcasting policy yields global exponential output synchronization, and L_p-stable output synchronization in the presence of disturbances. Employing a converse Lyapunov theorem for impulsive systems, we provide an average dwell-time condition that yields disturbance-to-state stable output synchronization in case of switching topology. The proposed approach is applicable to directed and unbalanced communication topologies. Finally, our results are corroborated by numerical simulations.

Cloud computing is a recently developed new technology for complex systems with massive service sharing, which is different from the resource sharing of the grid computing systems. In a cloud environment, service requests from users go through numerous provider specific steps from the instant it is submitted to when the service is fully delivered. Quality modeling and analysis of clouds are not easy tasks because of the complexity of the provisioning mechanism and the dynamic cloud environment. This study proposes an analytical modelbased approach for quality evaluation of Infrastructure-as-a-Service cloud and consider expected request completion time, rejection probability, and system overhead rate as key QoS metrics. It also features with the modeling of different warming and cooling strategies of machines and the ability to identify the optimal balance between system overhead and performance. © 2013 IEEE.

Load tests ensure that software systems are able to perform under the expected workloads. The current state of load test analysis requires significant manual review of performance counters and execution logs, and a high degree of system-specific expertise. In particular, memory-related issues (e.g., memory leaks or spikes), which may degrade performance and cause crashes, are difficult to diagnose. Performance analysts must correlate hundreds of megabytes or gigabytes of performance counters (to understand resource usage) with execution logs (to understand system behaviour). However, little work has been done to combine these two types of information to assist performance analysts in their diagnosis. We propose an automated approach that combines performance counters and execution logs to diagnose memory-related issues in load tests. We perform three case studies on two systems: one open-source system and one large-scale enterprise system. Our approach flags ≤ 0.1% of the execution logs with a precision ≥ 80%.

l 1 -minimization refers to finding the minimum l 1 -norm solution to an underdetermined linear system \mbi b = A \mbi x . Under certain conditions as described in compressive sensing theory, the minimum l 1 -norm solution is also the sparsest solution. In this paper, we study the speed and scalability of its algorithms. In particular, we focus on the numerical implementation of a sparsity-based classification framework in robust face recognition, where sparse representation is sought to recover human identities from high-dimensional facial images that may be corrupted by illumination, facial disguise, and pose variation. Although the underlying numerical problem is a linear program, traditional algorithms are known to suffer poor scalability for large-scale applications. We investigate a new solution based on a classical convex optimization framework, known as augmented Lagrangian methods. We conduct extensive experiments to validate and compare its performance against several popular l 1 -minimization solvers, including interior-point method, Homotopy, FISTA, SESOP-PCD, approximate message passing, and TFOCS. To aid peer evaluation, the code for all the algorithms has been made publicly available.

There continues to be many advances in the theory and practice of Modeling and Simulation (M&S). However, some of these can be considered as Grand Challenges;issues whose solutions require significant focused effort across a community, sometimes with ground-breaking collaborations with new disciplines. In 2002, the first M&S Grand Challenges Workshop was held in Dagstuhl, Germany, in an attempt to focus efforts on key areas. In 2012, a new initiative was launched to continue these Grand Challenge efforts. Panel members of this third Grand Challenge present their views on M&S Grand Challenges. Themes presented in this panel include M&S Methodology;Agent-based M M&S in Systems engineering;Cyber Systems Modeling;and Network Simulation. © 2013 ACM.

Recently, graphics processing units (GPUs) have opened up new opportunities for speeding up general-purpose parallel applications due to their massive computational power and up to hundreds of thousands of threads enabled by programming models such as CUDA. However, due to the serial nature of existing micro-architecture simulators, these massively parallel architectures and workloads need to be simulated sequentially. As a result, simulating GPGPU architectures with typical benchmarks and input data sets is extremely time-consuming. This paper addresses the GPGPU architecture simulation challenge by generating miniature, yet representative GPGPU kernels. We first summarize the static characteristics of an existing GPGPU kernel in a profile, and analyze its dynamic behavior using the novel concept of the divergence flow statistics graph (DFSG). We subsequently use a GPGPU kernel synthesizing framework to generate a miniature proxy of the original kernel, which can reduce simulation time significantly. The key idea is to reduce the number of simulated instructions by decreasing per-thread iteration counts of loops. Our experimental results show that our approach can accelerate GPGPU architecture simulation by a factor of 88X on average and up to 589X with an average IPC relative error of 5.6%.

Network radio frequency (RF) environment sensing (NRES) systems pinpoint and track people in buildings using changes in the signal strength measurements made by a wireless sensor network. It has been shown that such systems can locate people who do not participate in the system by wearing any radio device, even through walls, because of the changes that moving people cause to the static wireless sensor network. However, many such systems cannot locate stationary people. We present and evaluate a system which can locate stationary or moving people, without calibration, by using kernel distance to quantify the difference between two histograms of signal strength measurements. From five experiments, we show that our kernel distance-based radio tomographic localization system performs better than the state-of-the-art NRES systems in different non line-of-sight environments.

In harsh operational conditions, machines lose components on a frequent basis, causing a significant footprint to the surrounding environment. This affects operational up-time, safety measures and cost effectiveness. This paper proposes the use of an integrated RFID-WSN architecture to reduce the footprint of mining equipment used in the Canadian Oil Sands industry. Sensors and RFID tags provide both identification and positioning data for detecting broken parts from Ground Engaging Tools (GETs), such as huge shovel teeth. A delay-tolerant delivery approach utilizes mobile couriers, placed on loading trucks available in the vicinity, to store and carry data from readers and relays to remote base-stations. Delivering data in such harsh mining environments poses several challenges including power scarcity, vast transmission distances and the lack of an accessible communication infrastructure. We provide a use case to demonstrate how this architecture successfully overcomes these challenges within the harsh industrial environment of the Oil Sands. © 2012 IEEE.
