Utilization of MPUs in a computing cluster node for multimedia stream processing is considered. Non-linear increase of processor utilization is described and a related class of algorithms for multimedia real-time processing tasks is defined. For such conditions, experiments measuring the processor utilization and output data loss were proposed and their results presented. A new formula for prediction of utilization was proposed...

KASKADA is a computing platform for developing and running services and applications oriented to multimedia processing and data streaming. A solution for serving the platform in the PaaS model is presented. The paper briefly describes the software for creating the private cloud environment based on the OpenStack software. The coud has been deployed to a supercomputer working in C2 NIWA at the Gdansk University of technology. This...

W rozdziale przedstawiono wykorzystywany iteracyjny i inkrementalny proces wytwarzania oprogramowania, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem planowania, wykonywania i śledzenia testów oprogramowania platformy KASKADA. Zaprezentowano model V i przykłady testów jednostkowych, systemowych, wydajnościowych i wiarygodnościowych. Przedstawiono wybrane wyniki testów oraz ich wpływ na konstrukcję platformy.
