This paper analyses data privacy issues as they arise from different deployment scenarios for networks that use embedded sensor devices. Maintaining data privacy in pervasive environments requires the management and implementation of privacy protection measures close to the data source. We propose a set of atomic privacy parameters that is generic enough to form specific privacy classes and might be applied directly at the embedded sensor device.
Today, InfiniBand is an evolving high speed interconnect technology to build high performance computing clusters, that achieve top 10 rankings in the current top 500 of the worldwide fastest supercomputers. Network interfaces (called host channel adapters) provide transport layer services over connections and datagrams in reliable or unreliable manner. Additionally, InfiniBand supports remote direct memory access (RDMA) primitives that allow for one- sided communication. Using server load balancing together with a high performance cluster makes it possible to build a fast, scalable, and reliable service infrastructure. We have designed and implemented a scalable load balancer for InfiniBand clusters called SLIBNet. Our investigations show that the InfiniBand architecture offers features which perfectly support load balancing. We want to thank the Megware Computer GmbH for providing us an InfiniBand switch to realize a server load balancing testbed.
With the next generation Internet protocol IPv6 at the horizon, it is time to think about how applications can migrate to IPv6. Web traffic is currently one of the most important applications in the Internet. The increasing popularity of dynamically generated content on the World Wide Web, has created the need for fast web servers. Server clustering together with server load balancing has emerged as a promising technique to build scalable web servers. The paper gives a short overview over the new features of IPv6 and different server load balancing technologies. Further, we present and evaluate Loaded, an user-space server load balancer for IPv4 and IPv6 based on Linux.
SPAM ist in den letzten Jahren zur großten Bedrohung der E-Mail-Kommunikation herangewachsen - jedoch nicht nur auf diesen Kommunikationsweg beschrankt. Mit steigender Anzahl von VoIP-Anschlüssen werden auch hier die teilnehmenden Benutzer mit SPAM-Anrufen (SPIT) konfrontiert werden. Neben derzeit diskutierten juristischen Maßnahmen müssen auch technische Abwehrmaßnahmen geschaffen werden, welche SPAM erkennen und vermeiden können. Dieser Beitrag stellt zwei Erweiterungen für das VoIP-Protokoll SIP vor, welche es erstens den Providern ermöglichen, SPIT-Einschätzungen über den Anrufer zum angerufenen Benutzer zu übermitteln und zweitens den Angerufenen die Möglichkeit geben, mit einer Kostenanforderung auf potentielle SPIT-Anrufe zu reagieren.
Design Issues in the Implementation of MPI2 One Sided Communication in Ethernet based Networks
(2007)
In current research, one sided communication of the MPI2 standard is pushed as a promising technique [6, 7, 10, 18]. But measurements of applications and MPI2 primitives show a different picture [17]. In this paper we analyze de sign issues of MPI2 one sided communication and its im plementations. We focus on asynchronous communication for parallel applications in Ethernet cluster environments. Further, one sided communication is compared to two sided communication. This paper will prove that the key problem to performance is not only the implementation of MPI2 one sided communication - it is the design.
In this paper we present the design and implementation of the Migol brokering framework. Migol is a Grid middleware, which addresses the fault-tolerance of long-running and compute-intensive applications. The framework supports e. g. the automatic and transparent recovery respectively the migration of applications. Another core feature of Migol is the discovery, selection, and allocation of resources using advance reservation. Grid broker systems can significantly benefit from advance reservation. With advance reservation brokers and users can obtain execution guarantees from local resource management systems (LRM) without requiring detailed knowledge of current and future workloads or of the resource owner's policies. Migol's Advance Reservation Service (ARS) provides an adapter layer for reservation capabilities of different LRMs, which is currently not provided by existing Grid middleware platforms. Further, we propose a shortest expected delay (SED) strategy for scheduling of advance reservations within the Job Broker Service. SED needs information about the earliest start time of an application. This is currently not supported by LRMs. We added this feature for PBSPro. Migol depends on Globus and its security infrastructure. Our performance experiments show the substantial overhead of this serviceoriented approach.
