摘要:
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for remote rendering of computer graphics. The system includes a graphics application program resident at a remote server. The graphics application is invoked by a user or process located at a client. The invoked graphics application proceeds to issue graphics instructions. The graphics instructions are received by a remote rendering control system. Given that the client and server differ with respect to graphics context and image processing capability, the remote rendering control system modifies the graphics instructions in order to accommodate these differences. The modified graphics instructions are sent to graphics rendering resources, which produce one or more rendered images. Data representing the rendered images is written to one or more frame buffers. The remote rendering control system then reads this image data from the frame buffers. The image data is transmitted to the client for display or processing. In an embodiment of the system, the image data is compressed before being transmitted to the client. In such an embodiment, the steps of rendering, compression, and transmission can be performed asynchronously in a pipelined manner.

The present system enables more efficient I/O processing by providing a mechanism for maintaining data within the locality of reference. One or more accelerator modules may be implemented within a solid state storage device (SSD). The accelerator modules form a caching storage tier that can receive, store and reproduce data. The one or more accelerator modules may place data into the SSD or hard disk drives based on parameters associated with the data.

A cooling system for a high performance computing system includes a closed-loop cooling cell having two compute racks and a cooling tower between the compute racks. Each compute rack includes at least one blade enclosure, and the cooling tower includes at least one water-cooled heat exchanger and one or more blowers configured to draw warm air from a side of the compute racks towards a back, across the water-cooled heat exchanger, and to circulate cooled air to a side of the compute racks towards a front. The cooling cell further includes a housing enclosing the compute racks and the cooling tower to provide a closed-loop air flow within the cooling cell. The cooling system further includes cooling plate(s) configured to be disposed between two computing boards within the computing blade, and a fluid connection coupled to the cooling plate and in fluid communication with the blade enclosure.

A method at one or more computers having memory and one or more processors includes detecting establishment of a connection between a first process and a second process; determining whether an augmented communications service is available for the connection between the first process and second process; in accordance with a determination that the augmented communications service is available, configuring the connection between the first process and the second process to make use of the augmented communications service with no modification to the executable codes of the first process and the second process; and in accordance with a determination that the augmented communications service is not available, configuring the connection between the first process and the second process to make use of a non-augmented communications service.

A system for deploying big data software in a multi-instance node. The optimal CPU memory and core configuration for a single instance database is determined. After determining an optimal core-memory ratio for a single instance execution, the software is deployed in multi-instance mode on single machine by applying the optimal core-memory ratio for each of the instances. The multi-instance database may then be deployed and data may be loaded in parallel for the instances.

A cluster of computer system nodes share direct read/write access to storage devices via a storage area network using a cluster filesystem. At least one trusted metadata server assigns a mandatory access control label as an extended attribute of each filesystem object regardless of whether required by a client node accessing the filesystem object. The mandatory access control label indicates the sensitivity and integrity of the filesystem object and is used by the trusted metadata server(s) to control access to the filesystem object by all client nodes.

A cluster of computing systems is provided with guaranteed real-time access to data storage in a storage area network. Processes issue request for bandwidth reservation which are initially handled by a daemon on the same node as the requesting processes. The local daemon determines whether bandwidth is available and, if so, reserves the bandwidth in common hardware on the local node, then forwards requests for shared resources to a master daemon for the cluster. The master daemon makes similar determinations and reservations for resources shared by the cluster, including data storage elements in the storage area network and grants admission to the requests that don't exceed total available bandwidth.

A high-performance-computer system includes a statistics accumulation apparatus configured to efficiently accumulate system performance data from a variety of system components, and periodically write such data to processor local memory for efficient subsequent software processing of the thus acquired data, thereby reducing the system hardware and software overhead needed for collection of such data as compared to prior art systems.

In accordance with some implementations, a method for evaluating large scale computer systems based on performance is disclosed. A large scale, distributed memory computer system receives topology data, wherein the topology data describes the connections between the plurality of switches and lists the nodes associated with each switch. Based on the received topology data, the system performs a data transfer test for each of the pair of switches. The test includes transferring data between a plurality of nodes and determining a respective overall test result value reflecting overall performance of a respective pair of switches for a plurality of component tests. The system determines that the pair of switches meets minimum performance standards by comparing the overall test result value against an acceptable test value. If the overall test result value does not meet the minimum performance standards, the system reports the respective pair of switches as underperforming.
