We describe various group architectures as pipelined, hierarchical, daisy and hypercube groups each consisting of separate clusters, investigate the theoretical performance bounds of these architectures and evaluate their experimental performances using MPI group communication primitives. We first derive time bounds for multicast message deliveries in these architectures and then provide tests to measure the times taken for the same operation. The multicast message delivery times are tested against the number of clusters within a group and the size of the multicast message. We conclude that daisy architecture is favorable both in terms of delivery times and message sizes theoretically and experimentally.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 8A Cluster-Based Dynamic Load Balancing Middleware Protocol for Grids(Springer Verlag, 2005) Erciyeş, Kayhan; Payli, Reşat ÜmitWe describe a hierarchical dynamic load balancing protocol for Grids. The Grid consists of clusters and each cluster is represented by a coordinator. Each coordinator first attempts to balance the load in its cluster and if this fails, communicates with the other coordinators to perform transfer or reception of load. This process is repetaed periodically. We show the implementation and analyze the performance and scalability of the proposed protocol.
