一个基于Windows和PVM的Beowulf机群系统的设计与性能分析

Designing and Evaluating the Performance of a Beowulf Cluster System Based on Windows and PVM

具有良好性价比的Beowulf机群系统在并行计算领域得到越来越广泛的应用。论文介绍了在Windows2000 Server操作系统下基于PVM3.4beta6环境构造一个Beowulf机群系统的方法。利用一个并行算法实际测试了该Beowulf系统的并行计算加速比和并行效率。结果表明该Beowulf系统具有很高的并行计算效率和性价比。

The Beowulf system having gotten widely applications as it＇s good ration of price and quality. This paper introduces how to build a Beowulf system under Windows based on PVM3. 4beta6. Tests using a parallel computing program measure the paralle efficiency of this system. Results show that this Beowulf system could run high-performance computing tasks.
