Abstract
I have evaluated my new mechanisms on a PC cluster interconnected with a VIA-based network. The specific contributions of my thesis are a quantification of the levels of unresponsiveness in PC clusters and a classification of their source, a series of techniques designed to tolerate unresponsiveness that stems from each of these sources, and an evaluation of how well each technique performs towards the final goal of increasing the performance of collective-communication-centric parallel applications.
