Impact Assessment on the Parallel Performance of Node-Core Combinations in a Multicore Cluster Environment: A Case of Study

Multicore processors have opened new paths for improving the parallel performance in cluster environments. Nevertheless, the selection of different combinations between the amount of nodes and the number of cores per node implies different results in terms of parallel performance. We performed an im...
