Abstract

In recent years, grid and mesh structures have received increasing attention. The mesh based multicomputers are the future of processing. As we slowly reach natural limits of semi-conductor spatial density supercomputer design depends more heavily on parallel and distributed processing. This paper concerns mesh allocation algorithms effectiveness assessment and the experimentation system that was developed to provide testing environment. Most focus was put on creation of such a system that would represent the highest scope of real supercomputers inner working routines and at the same time supply a way to input measured processing data as a base of allocation algorithm load computation. In investigations reported different allocation algorithms, including own WSBA, and various task parameters are considered.
