TY - GEN T1 - A case for NOW (networks of workstations) A1 - Anderson, Thomas E. A2 - Culler, David E. A2 - Patterson, David A. LA - English UL - http://vufind10-pruebas.sigbunlp.bibliotecas.unlp.edu.ar/Record/dif.52148 AB - Networks of workstations are poised to become the primary computing infrastructure for science and engineering. NOWs may dramatically improve virtual memory and file system performance; achieve cheap, highly available, and scalable file storage; and provide multiple CPUs for parallel computing. Hurdles that remain include efficient communication hardware and software, global coordination of multiple workstation operating systems, and enterprisescale network file systems. Our 100-node NOW prototype aims to demonstrate practical solutions to these challenges.
