Originální abstrakt

A simple CSP-based model of cluster computing is presented. A Transimsimulation tool, originally intended for simulation of transputernetworks, can be used to simulate various parallel applications runningon workstation clusters. Since communication latency is quite high inclusters, prediction of processor utilization, obtainable speedup andexecution time are of interest. The Transim tool enables to find allthese figures in minimum time and with minimum effort. As an example, asolution of a large system of (1000+) linear equations on up to 8workstations connected via Ethernet to a hardware router is simulatedand results are compared to real execution based on MPI.
