A Service for Virtual Cluster Performance Evaluation
Massimiliano Rak, Antonio Cuomo, Umberto Villano · 2010
Virtualization overhead is the main reason for the slow diffusion of virtualization techniques into high-performance computing environments. This paper discusses the issues linked to the performance evaluation of virtual clusters, and presents the implementation of a service that automates the benchmarking and results collection procedure in an existing cloud-on-GRID environment.
