Abstract

The advent of widely interconnected computing resources introduces the technologies of grid computing. A typical grid system, the cluster grid, consists of several clusters located in multiple campuses that distributed globally over the Internet. Because of the Internet infrastructure of cluster grid, the communication overhead becomes as key factor to the performance of applications on cluster grid. In this paper, we present a processor reordering technique for the communication optimizations of data parallel programs on cluster grid. The alignment of data in parallel programs is considered as example to examine the proposed techniques. Effectiveness of the processor reordering technique is to reduce the inter-cluster communication overheads and to speedup the execution of parallel applications in the underlying distributed clusters. Our preliminary analysis and experimental results of the proposed method on mapping data to logical grid nodes show improvement of communication costs and conduce to better performance of parallel programs on different hierarchical grid of cluster systems.
