Seventh International Conference on Networking (icn 2008)
A Comparison of Cluster and Grid Configurations Executing Image Processing Tasks in a Local Network
April 13-April 18
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3106-9
The use of clusters and grids for high-performance applications has become widespread lately. In general, one associates clusters with dedicated LANs and grids with WANs and internets. This paper reports the results of a comparative analysis between cluster and grid performance when executing a load-balanced, image processing application in a local-area network. The results obtained show almost no difference in total execution times, indicating that grid software may be used advantageously in LANs to run similar load-balanced applications.
Index Terms:
Cluster, grid, image processing, load-balancing
