摘要:In the Image Processing Research Laboratory
(INTI-Lab) of the Universidad de Ciencias y Humanidades, the
permission to use the embedded systems laboratory was
obtained. INTI-Lab researchers will use this laboratory to do
different research related to the processing of large scale videos,
climate predictions, climate change research, physical
simulations, among others. This type of projects, demand a high
complexity in their processes, carried out in ordinary computers
that result in an unfavorable time for the researcher. For this
reason, one opted for the implementation of a high-performance
cluster architecture that is a set of computers interconnected to a
local network. This set of computers tries to give a unique
behavior to solve complex problems using parallel computing
techniques. The intention is to reduce the time directly
proportional to the number of machines, giving a similarity of
having a low-cost supercomputer. Different performance tests
were performed scaling from 1 to 28 computers to measure time
reduction. The results will show if it is feasible to use the
architecture in future projects that demand processes of high
scientific complexity.
