Abstract:

Due to the growth of users and linked devices in networks, there is an emerging need for dynamic solutions to control and manage computing and network resources. This document proposes a Distributed Wireless Operative System on a Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) to manage and control computing resources in relation to several virtual resources linked in a wireless network. This prototype has two elements: a local agent that works on each physical node to manage the computing resources (e.g., virtual resources and distributed applications) and an orchestrator agent that monitors, manages, and deploys policies on each physical node. These elements arrange the local and global computing resources to provide a quality service to the users of the Ad-hoc cluster. The proposed S.O.V.O.R.A. model (Operating Virtualized System oriented to Ad-hoc networks) defines primitives, commands, virtual structures, and modules to operate as a distributed wireless operating system.

Abstract:

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2010.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 87-89).<br>A factored operating system (fos) is a new operating system design for manycore and cloud computers. In fos, OS services are separated from application code and run on distinct cores. Furthermore, each service is split into a fleet, or parallel set of cooperating processes that communicate using messages. Applications discover OS services through a distributed, dynamic name service. Each core runs a thin microkernel, and applications link in a user-space library called libfos that translates service requests into messages. The name service facilitates message delivery by looking up service locations and load balancing within service fleets. libfos caches service locations in a private cache to accelerate message delivery, and invalid entries are detected and invalidated by the microkernel. As messaging is the primary communication medium in fos, the name service plays a foundational role in the system. It enables key concepts of fos's design, such as fleets, communication locality, elasticity, and spatial scheduling. It is also one of the first complex services implemented in fos, and its implementation provides insight into issues one encounters while developing a distributed fos service. This thesis describes the design and implementation of the naming system in fos, including the naming and messaging system within each application and the distributed name service itself. Scaling numbers for the name service are presented for various workloads, as well as end-to-end performance numbers for two benchmarks. These numbers indicate good scaling of the name service with expected usage patterns, and superior messaging performance of the new naming system when compared with its prior implementation. The thesis concludes with research directions for future work.<br>by Nathan Beckmann.<br>S.M.

Abstract:

Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) provides programmers with a shared memory environment in systems where memory is not physically shared. Clusters of Workstations (COWs), an often untapped source of computing power, are characterised by a very low cost/performance ratio. The combination of Clusters of Workstations (COWs) with DSM provides an environment in which the programmer can use the well known approaches and methods of programming for physically shared memory systems and parallel processing can be carried out to make full use of the computing power and cost advantages of the COW. The aim of this research is to synthesise and develop a distributed shared memory system as an integral part of an operating system in order to provide application programmers with a convenient environment in which the development and execution of parallel applications can be done easily and efficiently, and which does this in a transparent manner. Furthermore, in order to satisfy our challenging design requirements we want to demonstrate that the operating system into which the DSM system is integrated should be a distributed operating system. In this thesis a study into the synthesis of a DSM system within a microkernel and client-server based distributed operating system which uses both strict and weak consistency models, with a write-invalidate and write-update based approach for consistency maintenance is reported. Furthermore a unique automatic initialisation system which allows the programmer to start the parallel execution of a group of processes with a single library call is reported. The number and location of these processes are determined by the operating system based on system load information. The DSM system proposed has a novel approach in that it provides programmers with a complete programming environment in which they are easily able to develop and run their code or indeed run existing shared memory code. A set of demanding DSM system design requirements are presented and the incentives for the placement of the DSM system with a distributed operating system and in particular in the memory management server have been reported. The new DSM system concentrated on an event-driven set of cooperating and distributed entities, and a detailed description of the events and reactions to these events that make up the operation of the DSM system is then presented. This is followed by a pseudocode form of the detailed design of the main modules and activities of the primitives used in the proposed DSM system. Quantitative results of performance tests and qualitative results showing the ease of programming and use of the RHODOS DSM system are reported. A study of five different application is given and the results of tests carried out on these applications together with a discussion of the results are given. A discussion of how RHODOS DSM allows programmers to write shared memory code in an easy to use and familiar environment and a comparative evaluation of RHODOS DSM with other DSM systems is presented. In particular, the ease of use and transparency of the DSM system have been demonstrated through the description of the ease with which a moderately inexperienced undergraduate programmer was able to convert, write and run applications for the testing of the DSM system. Furthermore, the description of the tests performed using physically shared memory shows that the latter is indistinguishable from distributed shared memory; this is further evidence that the DSM system is fully transparent. This study clearly demonstrates that the aim of the research has been achieved; it is possible to develop a programmer friendly and efficient DSM system fully integrated within a distributed operating system. It is clear from this research that client-server and microkernel based distributed operating system integrated DSM makes shared memory operations transparent and almost completely removes the involvement of the programmer beyond classical activities needed to deal with shared memory. The conclusion can be drawn that DSM, when implemented within a client-server and microkernel based distributed operating system, is one of the most encouraging approaches to parallel processing since it guarantees performance improvements with minimal programmer involvement.

Abstract:

This dissertation describes the design and implementation of the file system component of the Saguaro operating system for computers connected by a local-area network. Systems constructed on such an architecture have the potential advantage of increased file availability due to their inherent redundancy. In Saguaro, this advantage is made available through two mechanisms that support semi-automatic file replication and access: reproduction sets and metafiles. A reproduction set is a collection of files that the system attempts to keep identical on a "best effort" basis, relying on the user to handle unusual situations that may arise. A metafile is a special file that contains symbolic path names of other files; when a metafile is opened, the system selects an available constituent file and opens it instead. These mechanisms are especially appropriate for situations that do not require guaranteed consistency or a large number of copies. Other interesting aspects of the Saguaro file system design are also described. The logical file system forms a single tree, yet any file can be placed in any of the physical file systems. This organization allows the creation of a logical association among files that is quite different from their physical association. In addition, the broken path algorithm is described. This algorithm makes it possible to bypass elements in a path name that are on inaccessible physical file systems. Thus, any accessible file can be made available, regardless of the availability of directories in its path. Details are provided on the implementation of the Saguaro file system. The servers of which the system is composed are described individually and a comprehensive operational example is supplied to illustrate their interation. The underlying data structures of the file system are presented. The virtual roots, which contain information used by the broken path algorithm, are the most novel of these. Finally, an implementation of reproduction sets and metafiles for interconnected networks running Berkeley UNIX is described. This implementation demonstrates the broad applicability of these mechanisms. It also provides insight into the way in which mechanisms to facilitate user controlled replication of files can be inexpensively added to existing file systems. Performance measurements for this implementation are also presented.
