  18. Models of Computation • Master-slave • AFAIK all proposed commercial applications • Branch-&-bound optimization • A generalization of master-slave.

  26. 0 7 2 3 6 4 3 Models of ComputationBranch & Bound • Tasks created dynamically • Upper bound is shared • To detect termination: scheduler detects tasks that have been: • Completed • Killed (“bounded”)

  27. API public class Host implements Runnable { . . . public void run() { while ( (node = jDM.getWork()) != null ) { if ( isAtomic() ) compute(); // search space; return result else { child = node.branch(); // put children in child array for (int i = 0; i < node.numChildren; i++) if ( child[i].setLowerBound() < UpperBound ) jDM.addWork( child[i] ); //else child is killed implicitly } } }

  28. API private void compute() { . . . boolean newBest = false; while ( (node = stack.pop()) != null ) { if ( node.isComplete() ) if ( node.getCost() < UpperBound ) { newBest = true; UpperBound = node.getCost(); jDM.propagateValue( UpperBound ); best = Node( child[i] ); } else { child = node.branch(); for (int i = 0; i < node.numChildren; i++) if ( child[i].setLowerBound() < UpperBound ) stack.push( child[i] ); //else child is killed implicitly } } if ( newBest ) jDM.returnResult( best ); } }

  34. Scalable ComputationFault Tolerance via Eager Scheduling When: • All tasks have been assigned • Some results have not been reported • A host wants a new task Re-assign a task! • Eager scheduling tolerates faults & balances the load. • Computation completes, if at least 1 host communicates with client.

  35. 0 7 2 3 6 4 3 Scalable ComputationFault Tolerance via Eager Scheduling • Scheduler must know which: • Tasks have completed • Nodes have been killed • Performance  balance • Centralized schedule info • Decentralized computation

  36. Experimental Results

  37. 0 7 2 3 8 6 10 4 3 8 7 12 10 9 10 Experimental Results Example of a “bad” graph

  38. Conclusions • Javelin 2 relieves designer/programmer managing a set of [Inter-] networked processors that is: • Dynamic • Faulty • A wide set of applications is covered by: • Master-slave model • Branch & bound model • Weak shared memory performs well. • Use multicast (?) for: • Code distribution • Propagating values

  39. Future Work • Improve support for long-lived computation: • Do not require that the client run continuously. • A dag model of computation • with limited weak shared memory.

  40. Future WorkJini/JavaSpaces Technology “Continuously” disperse Tasks among brokers via a physics model H H H TaskManager aka Broker H H H H H

  41. Future WorkJini/JavaSpaces Technology • TaskManager uses persistent JavaSpace • Host management: trivial • Eager scheduling: simple • No single point of failure • Fat tree topology

  42. Future WorkAdvanced Issues • Privacy of data & algorithm • Algorithms • New computational complexity model “Minimize” communication between machines • N-body problem, … • Accounting: Associate specific work with specific host • Correctness • Compensation (how to quantify?) • Create international open source organization • System infrastructure • Application codes
