Difference between High-Performance Computing, High-Throughput Computing ,&Many-Task Computing (HPC vs. HTC vs. MTC).

 HPC vs. HTC vs. MTC

HPC activities need enormous amounts of computing power for short periods of time, whereas HTC workloads require large amounts of computing power for considerably longer periods of time (months and years, rather than hours and days). The HTC is more concerned with operations per month than with activities per second. As a result, the HTC field is more concerned with how many projects to be performed over a long period of time than how quickly. HTC is a computing paradigm that emphasizes the efficient execution of many loosely linked activities.HPC systems are often focused on tightly parallel workloads.HTC systems are self-contained, sequential tasks that may be scheduled on vane computer resources across several administrative boundaries. HTC systems do this through the w different grid computing technologies and approaches.MTC's mission is to bridge the gap between HPC. MTC is similar to HTC, but it differs in its emphasis on employing a large number of comp resources in a short amount of time to complete a large number of computational tasks, including t-dependent and independent activities. In contrast to operations per month, the major metric measured in seconds, such as FLOPS, tasks/s, MB/s I/O rates, and so on.

Suppose that a data warehouse for Big-University consists of the following four dimensions: student, course, semester, and instructor, and two measures count and avg_grade. When at the lowest conceptual level (e.g., for a given student, course, semester, and instructor combination), the avg_grade measure stores the actual course grade of the student. At higher conceptual levels, avg_grade stores the average grade for the given combination. a) Draw a snowflake schema diagram for the data warehouse. b) Starting with the base cuboid [student, course, semester, instructor], what specific OLAP operations (e.g., roll-up from semester to year) should one perform in order to list the average grade of CS courses for each BigUniversity student. c) If each dimension has five levels (including all), such as “student < major < status < university < all”, how many cuboids will this cube contain (including the base and apex cuboids)?

Discuss classification or taxonomy of virtualization at different levels.

Suppose that a data warehouse consists of the four dimensions; date, spectator, location, and game, and the two measures, count and charge, where charge is the fee that a spectator pays when watching a game on a given date. Spectators may be students, adults, or seniors, with each category having its own charge rate. a) Draw a star schema diagram for the data b) Starting with the base cuboid [date; spectator; location; game], what specific OLAP operations should perform in order to list the total charge paid by student spectators at GM Place in 2004?
