Abstract
Networks of workstations have become increasingly popular for high performance computing. However, in order to become a real alternative for MPPs, reliability and efficiency issues must be tackled. In this paper, we identify the key challenges for very large workstation networks, and describe implementation techniques at system software level to overcome these problems. Crown, a testbed for experimenting with these mechanisms is briefly discussed.
