Sistemas de arquivos paralelos: alternativas para a redução do gargalo no acesso ao sistema de arquivos / Parallel File Systems: alternatives to reduce the bottleneck in accessing the file systemCarvalho, Roberto Pires de 23 September 2005 (has links)
Nos últimos anos, a evolução dos processadores e redes para computadores de baixo custo foi muito maior se comparada com o aumento do desempenho dos discos de armazenamento de dados. Com isso, muitas aplicações estão encontrando dificuldades em atingir o pleno uso dos processadores, pois estes têm de esperar até que os dados cheguem para serem utilizados. Uma forma popular para resolver esse tipo de empecílio é a adoção de sistemas de arquivos paralelos, que utilizam a velocidade da rede local, além dos recursos de cada máquina, para suprir a deficiência de desempenho no uso isolado de cada disco. Neste estudo, analisamos alguns sistemas de arquivos paralelos e distribuídos, detalhando aqueles mais interessantes e importantes. Por fim, mostramos que o uso de um sistema de arquivos paralelo pode ser mais eficiente e vantajoso que o uso de um sistema de arquivos usual, para apenas um cliente. / In the last years, the evolution of the data processing power and network transmission for low cost computers was much bigger if compared to the increase of the speed of getting the data stored in disks. Therefore, many applications are finding difficulties in reaching the full use of the processors, because they have to wait until the data arrive before using. A popular way to solve this problem is to use a parallel file system, which uses the local network speed to avoid the performance bottleneck found in an isolated disk. In this study, we analyze some parallel and distributed file systems, detailing the most interesting and important ones. Finally, we show the use of a parallel file system can be more efficient than the use of a usual local file system, for just one client.

Development and Characterization of Parallel-Plate Avalanche Counters for Nuclear Physics ExperimentsCarlsson, Matthias January 2018 (has links)
Parallel-plate avalanche counters, PPACs, are commonly used to detect fission fragments. The PPAC detects them and mark (very accurately) the time of detection. Such measurements can be used to measure the neutron energy (via time-of-flight) to study neutron-induced fission.This project report provides a method that, together with the discussed improvements, allows the fabrication of good quality PPAC detectors. Several PPACs are manufactured and the electrodes are built from 0.9 µm thick mylar foils which are evaporated with a 40-80 nm thin layer of aluminum.The developed PPACs are characterized with well known radioactive Cf and Am sources (the source characterization also found in this report), and compared against each other. Additionally, the PPAC signal amplitude spectrum are found to follow theoretical expectations with regards to angular dependence, gas pressure and an applied electrode voltage.At a specific applied electrode voltage and range of gas pressures (3-9 mbar), the measured time resolutions are 2.24-1.38 ns. A trend is observed for finer time resolutions at higher gas pressures. / Parallel-plate avalanche counters, PPACs, används ofta för att detektera fissionsfragment. PPAC:en detekterar fragmenten med väldigt god tidsupplösning och således kan PPAC detektorer användas till att mäta neutron energier (mha. flygtidsmetoden), vilka uppmätts för att studera neutroninducerad fission.Det här projektet och den här rapporten beskriver en metod, med föreslagna förbättringar, som möjliggör tillverkning av PPAC detektorer av bra kvalitet. Under projektet har flera PPACs byggts med elektroder gjorda av 0.9 µm tunn mylar förångade med 40-80 nm aluminium. De tillverkade PPAC detektorerna är karaktäriserade med väl kända radioaktiva Cf- och Am-källor (dessa karaktäriseras även i den här rapporten). Detektorerna är sedan jämförda mot varandra och är funna att följa teoretiska förväntningar med avseende på vinkel-, gastryck- och pålagd elektrodspänningsberoende.Resultaten av projektet, som besvarar flera tidigare frågeställningar och bekräftar vissa antaganden, flyttar utsikten och förståelsen framåt för hur PPACs fungerar och vad forskarna kan uppnå med dem.

Pokročilé nástroje pro měření výkonu / Advanced Tools for Performance MeasurementSmrček, Jaromír January 2008 (has links)
This thesis presents the I/O layer of Linux kernel and shows various tools for tuning and optimization of its performance. Many tools are presented and their usage and outputs are studied. The thesis then focuses on the means of combining such tools to create more applicable methodology of system analysis and monitoring. The practical part consists of applying SystemTap scripts for blktrace subsystem and creating a fragmentation monitoring tool with graphical output.
