Title: A network-centric approach to space-restricted distributed processing

Abstract: Abstract: The Space Efficient Embedded Cluster (SEEC) is a new system that offers a practical solution to space-restricted distributed processing. Utilising Linux compatible, embedded network controllers and standard Beowulf libraries presents developers with an easy to use, modular, distributed architecture. Networking characteristics are examined to quantify MPI operational overheads. Analysis in terms of weight and volume is undertaken when compared to a reference PC system for the example application RC5. A similar analysis is presented for DGEMM when utilising a possible, modular, per node FPGA enhancement. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
