Cluster Computing With Single Thread Space

Overview To achieve Single System Image (SSI) for cluster computing is a challenging task since SSI is a form of complete transparency that requires the integration and unification of all types of resources in a cluster. This paper proposes a new Java computing platform with the concept of Single Thread Space, which is a true parallel computing environment for performing a multi-threaded Java application on a cluster environment. Threads running within this space would share all the resources that each thread has created or allocated and they view the underlying cluster as a single computing system. The paper realizes the single thread space based on a middleware developed at a virtual machine level, which allows application program to create as many threads as needed.
