The proposed resource allocation heuristics were implemented on the High Performance Distributed Computing Program's (HiPer-D) Naval Surface Warfare Center testbed. The goal of this study is to design static resource allocation heuristics that balance the utilization of the computation and network resources while ensuring very low failure rates. A failure occurs if no allocation is found that allows the system to meet its resource and quality of service constraints. The broader goal is to determine an initial resource allocation that maximizes the time before run-time re-allocation is required for managing an increased workload. This study proposes two heuristics that perform well with respect to the load-balancing and failure rates. These heuristics are, therefore, very desirable for HiPer-D like systems where low failure rates can be a critical requirement.born digitalarticleseng©2002 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.Copyright and other restrictions may apply.
