Heterogeneous Supercomputing: Problems and Issues
Ashfaq Khokhar, Viktor K. Prasanna, M.E. Shaaban, Cho-Li Wang · 2005
While promising feasible solutions to several short comings of homogeneous parallel computing, Hetero geneous SuperComputing (HSC) poses new problems to be solved. In this paper, we outline the issues and problems arising in using heterogeneous environments for parallel solutions to various applications. Prelim inary solutions to a set of problems in heterogeneous supercomputing are presented. AB an example appli cation, implementation of image understanding algo rithms in a heterogeneous environment is studied.
