A method of providing a single system image in a clustered environment. An internet protocol (IP) address is assigned as a cluster IP address. The cluster IP address is bound to a node in a cluster. A client request directed to the cluster IP address is received in the node. The node multicasts the request to all nodes in the cluster. A dynamically adjustable workload distribution function filters the request, wherein the function is configured to allow a single node to process the client request. A response to the request is obtained. A cluster media access control (MAC) address is inserted into the response and the response is sent from the single node to the client.

A tree-structured index to multidimensional data is created using occurring patterns and clusters within the data which permit efficient search and retrieval strategies in a database of DNA profiles. A search engine utilizes hierarchical decomposition of the database by identifying clusters of similar DNA profiles and maps to parallel computer architecture, allowing scale up past previously feasible limits. Key benefits of the new method are logarithmic scale up and parallelization. These benefits are achieved by identification and utilization of occurring patterns and clusters within stored data. The patterns and clusters enable the stored data to be partitioned into subsets of roughly equal size. The method can be applied recursively, resulting in a database tree that is balanced, meaning that all paths or branches through the tree have roughly the same length. The method achieves high performance by exploiting the natural structure of the data in a manner that maintains balanced trees. Implementation of the method maps to parallel computer architectures, allowing scale up to very large databases.

Exemplary embodiments of the invention provide load distribution among storage systems using solid state memory (e.g., flash memory) as expanded cache area. In accordance with an aspect of the invention, a system comprises a first storage system and a second storage system. The first storage system changes a mode of operation from a first mode to a second mode based on load of process in the first storage system. The load of process in the first storage system in the first mode is executed by the first storage system. The load of process in the first storage system in the second mode is executed by the first storage system and the second storage system.

A method and associated systems for the environmentally aware load-balancing of components of a multi-component power-consuming system. The environmentally aware load-balancer receives continually updated values from at least two environmental sensors that monitor and report the values of environmental metrics that characterize components of the power-consuming system and the environments within which those components are located. When the load-balancer receives a task request directed to the power-consuming system, the load-balancer selects a balanced workload allocation as a function of the values of the received environmental metrics and communicates that balanced workload allocation to a routing mechanism. The routing mechanism then uses the communicated balanced workload allocation to determine which component or components of the power-consuming system should receive the task request.

A method and system for message delivery in messaging networks is provided. The system provides a group of replicated queues for messages that are operable to be identified by an application before a message is read. The group of replicated queues are defined in association with a group of message managing systems, where a message is sent to each of the group of replicated queues to be accessible using any one of the group of message managing systems. The method includes creating a message including a unique identifier, and sending the message to each of a group of replicated queues with the message identifiable by the unique identifier information prior to the message being consumed.

distributed database management system implemented on a cluster of computers. The cluster including disks organized as data nodes. The data nodes being locally connected to one or more computers in the cluster. The distributed database management system includes a distributed database manager layer having a lock manager, a resource manager, and an architecture manager. The lock manager serializes access to the data nodes in the cluster. The resource manager maintains a data representation of the resources of each computer in the cluster and makes the data available to other computers in the cluster to facilitate access to the resources by the other computers. The architecture manager defines logical ownership relationships between data nodes and computers in the cluster to permit the architecture of the database to be dynamically reconfigured to provide improved performance.
