High Performance Networks

From Supercomputing to Cloud Computing

By: Dennis Abts,John Kim

Datacenter networks provide the communication substrate for large parallel computer systems that form the ecosystem for high performance computing (HPC) systems and modern Internet applications. The design of new datacenter networks is motivated by an array of applications ranging from communication intensive climatology, complex material simulations and molecular dynamics to such Internet applications as Web search, language translation, collaborative Internet applications, streaming video and voice-over-IP. For both Supercomputing and Cloud Computing the network enables distributed applications to communicate and interoperate in an orchestrated and efficient way. This book describes the design and engineering tradeoffs of datacenter networks. It describes interconnection networks from topology and network architecture to routing algorithms, and presents opportunities for taking advantage of the emerging technology trends that are influencing router microarchitecture. With the emergence of "many-core" processor chips, it is evident that we will also need "many-port" routing chips to provide a bandwidth-rich network to avoid the performance limiting effects of Amdahl's Law. We provide an overview of conventional topologies and their routing algorithms and show how technology, signaling rates and cost-effective optics are motivating new network topologies that scale up to millions of hosts. The book also provides detailed case studies of two high performance parallel computer systems and their networks. Table of Contents: Introduction / Background / Topology Basics / High-Radix Topologies / Routing / Scalable Switch Microarchitecture / System Packaging / Case Studies / Closing Remarks

Process Simulation and Parametric Modeling for Strategic Project Management

By: Peter J. Morales,Dennis Anderson

Process Simulation and Parametric Modeling for Strategic Project Management will offer CIOs, CTOs and Software Development Managers, IT Graduate Students an introduction to a set of technologies that will help them understand how to better plan software development projects, manage risk and have better insight into the complexities of the software development process. A novel methodology will be introduced that allows a software development manager to better plan and access risks in the early planning of a project. By providing a better model for early software development estimation and software development, managers will be better equipped to make more effective project portfolio investment choices. Moreover, the methodology will allow the software development manager to continually simulate scenarios throughout the lifecycle of the project and determine plausible alternatives before the risk becomes a reality.

I Should Be Dead by Now

By: Dennis Rodman

Since I was a kid, I had always prided myself on my discipline in the things that really mattered-in the weight room, on the court (forget the refs), defense, rebounding, in how I play the game. Off court was my business; but suddenly things had changed.After the motorcycle accident, my agent, Darren Prince, was so worried about my partying that he called in the cavalry, my former bodyguard, Wendell "Big Will" Williams-a six-foot-four-inch, 400-pound black man to whom people, including Dennis Rodman, tend to listen. Wendell was coming out of bodyguard retirement to make sure I did what I was supposed to do when I was supposed to do it. He started out strong at the Radio Music Awards in Las Vegas. It was exactly a week after the Treasures motorcycle crash. Despite my usual protests-"I don't want to do this. This is bullshit. It's not gonna help my career"-that afternoon Wendell managed to get me, sober no less, to this series of round-robin interviews with every radio station in America. This went on for hours before the actual awards show that night, and Wendell wouldn't let me drink. Afterwards, it was like I'd just run a marathon, and I went out by the pool to relax with a cool one while he went upstairs to shower. When Wendell got back down, I was wasted. This was all new to him. In the three years since he'd worked with me, I'd started spending much more time with my friend, Herr Jdgermeister, and this was his first time to see Dennis Rodman, Daytime Drunk.Darren was on my ass. Wendell was on my ass. My best friend, Thaer, was on my ass. Even my wife, Michelle, was on my ass. Anyway, after the motorcycle accident and my skid-row-drunk performance at the Radio Music Awards, ESPN satdown Michelle for an interview. "I'm done. I'm ready for a divorce," she told the interviewer. This from a woman who has "Mrs. Rodman" tattooed just above her butt in letters about an inch high.By the end of October 20

Your Friend and Mine, Andy Devine (Hardback)

By: Dennis Devine

This is the HARDBACK version. Everyone loved Andy Devine, who starred on radio, television, films, and the New York stage. Just look at his credits in the back of this book and you will be amazed. Devine was discovered by accident, then struggled for many years. But success would be his, and he would appear in some of the greatest films ever made. Andy Devine would be married to the same woman for forty-three years and they would live on a farm just outside Hollywood. They raised two sons who would graduate from college and be successful in their own right. In this book you will meet many Hollywood characters who were clever, funny and unpredictable. You will experience both the golden age of film and radio plus the early years of television. You will be involved with the deal makers and the deal breakers. Our author, Dennis Devine, is a dramatic and compelling story teller who will capture the reader. Just try to put it down! "Making friends was what Andy Devine was all about," writes his son Dennis Devine in his loving, respectful memoir of his beloved father. Dennis is a good storyteller (perhaps an inherited trait?) as he relates he and his father's evolving relationship. - Western Clippings

When Your Life Is Like a Circus

By: Dennis Hampel

WHEN YOUR LIFE IS LIKE A CIRCUS"....and whose life isn't? Here's the story of a family of entertainers with 48 years of real life experiences of international entertainment in circuses and stage productions that included hanging from a helicopter while strapped in a straightjacket! Brushes with death from rogue elephants, traveling hundreds of "mountain miles" a day, and meeting strangers who turned out to be 'angels' who showed up at "just the right time" are all integral parts of this exciting testimony of a family who felt God was directing their paths and who learned how to listen to His directions as they enjoyed His blessings along the way. This book contains the story of an entire family who took their God given talents and developed programs to motivate "children of all ages" to be the very best they were created to be! It's a true life story that can inspire the reader with the motivation to get thru challenges as THEY listen to God's direction in THEIR personal lives encouraging everyone to "MAKE CHRIST THEIR RINGMASTER"!
