SMO some times doesn't display the instances in sql2008 cluster

Hi I have used SMO API.in that i have used SmoApplication.EnumAvailableServers(FALSE) and from that i have filtered local instances i have used this approch insted of true to make this as convinent for remote sqldiscovery also.using that api created a dll and use that dll in c++. Now this is working in all combinations but some times i...

Correlation clustering in r

I'd like to use correlation clustering and I figure R is a good place to start. I can present the data to R as a set of large, sparse vectors or as a table with a pre-computed dissimilarity matrix. My question is are there existing R functions to turn this into a hierarchical cluster with agnes that uses correlation clustering? Will I ...

Installing oracle 10 client on a windows server cluster

Is there anything special I need to do when installing the oracle 10 client software on a windows cluster? The client is needed to provide access to an oracle db from a sql server as a linked server. Should it be installed to a shared disk, or is it ok to install on local storage? ...

Server side clusters of coordinates based on zoom level

Thanks to this answer I managed to come up with a temporary solution to my problem. However, with a list of 6000 points that grows everyday it's becoming slower and slower. I can't use a third party service* therefore I need to come up with my own solution. Here are my requirements: Clustering of the coordinates need to work with ...

cluster short, homogeneous strings (DNA) according to common sub-patterns and extract consensus of classes

Task: to cluster a large pool of short DNA fragments in classes that share common sub-sequence-patterns and find the consensus sequence of each class. Pool: ca. 300 sequence fragments 8 - 20 letters per fragment 4 possible letters: a,g,t,c each fragment is structured in three regions: 5 generic letters 8 or more positions of g's...

writing a similarity function for images for clustering data

I know how to write a similarity function for data points in euclidean space (by taking the negative min sqaured error.) Now if I want to check my clustering algorithms on images how can I write a similarity function for data points in images? Do I base it on their RGB values or what? and how? ...

Can computer clusters be used for general everyday applications?

Does anyone know how a computer cluster can be used for everyday applications, like for example video games? I would like to build a computer cluster that can run applications over the cluster that were not specifically designed for computer clusters and still see the performance increase. One use would be for video games, but I would ...

Clustering huge vector space

I'm doing some tests clustering a big number of very large sparse vectors representing term-frequency-inverse-document-frequency of various hypertextual documents. What algorithm would you suggest for clustering this data, taking into account the proportions of the data set? The dimension of the vectors would be > 3·105 and the number of...

MPI overhead in shared memory setup.

I want parallelize a program. It's not that difficult with threads working on one big data-structure in shared memory. But I want to be able to use distribute it over cluster and I have to choose a technology to do that. MPI is one idea. The question is what overhead will have MPI (or other technology) if I skip implementation of speci...

Using Tomcats(in an apache-tomcat cluster) as reverse-proxies to apache servers behind

I'm writing a small web service(like a content server) to search and serve content. Basically it has 2 parts - one dynamic part performing client authentication and providing search functionality over the content. The second part involves serving static content to the authenticated client. What can be a good architecture for the above s...

Does IBM http server balance all requests based on client IP?

While running performance testing I've noticed that all the requests from any given IP address seem to all be going to the one cluster member. I've got about 7 concurrent users plugging away, and one server's got log activity while the other is sitting idle. Needless to say this is going to mess up my testing results unless I can find a...

Clustering a J2EE Webapp - Options?

I have a webapp deployed to three servers running Apache, Tomcat and a load balancer in front of them. Now I am thinking of clustering them. Here are the options usual options and my constraints that I am aware of: Serialization based Session clustering: In my case, the application uses a lot of objects in session. So I would prefer n...

What will be the most efficient indexes and constraints to use on my SQL Server table?

We have two tables, ActivityForm and Field which are given a many-to-many relationship via the ActivityFormField table. The ActivityFormFieldValidator table will have a many-to-one relationship with the ActivityFormField table, so we are giving the ActivityFormField table an identity column ("ActivityFormFieldId"). The ActivityFormFiel...

A python compute cluster!

Would it be possible to make a python cluster, by writing a telnet server, then telnet-ing the commands and output back-and-forth? Has anyone got a better idea for a python compute cluster? PS. Preferably for python 3.x, if anyone knows how. ...

Efficient way of calculating likeness scores of strings when sample size is large?

Let's say that you have a list of 10,000 email addresses, and you'd like to find what some of the closest "neighbors" in this list are - defined as email addresses that are suspiciously close to other email addresses in your list. I'm aware of how to calculate the Levenshtein distance between two strings (thanks to this question), which...

Configuring JMS over a Weblogic Cluster

I have a setup of 2 WLS managed servers configured as part of a WLS cluster. 1) The requirement is to send requests to another system and receive responses using JMS as interface. 2) The request could originate from either of the Managed Servers. So the corresponding response should reach the managed server which originated the request...
