Efficient selection strategies towards processor reordering techniques for improving data locality in heterogeneous clusters
Grid architecture integrates geographically distributed nodes to manage and provide resources to execute scientific applications. For data locality, applications with different computational phases require data redistribution for realignment. The tradeoff between high efficiency computation and communication cost of data redistribution accompanies. This paper introduces a research model and two methods to derive new lists of processor logical id according to the characteristics of heterogeneous network. Both methods provide choices of more low-cost communication schedules in grid. The simulations show both proposed methods yield outstanding performance in grid.
