Overview The Aida Laboratory is a research group devoted to the study of parallel and distributed computing systems. Our goal is to develop
fundamental/practical technologies to effectively utilize IT resources in
parallel and distributed computing platforms, including clusters, grids and clouds. Currently, we focus on the following projects:
Distributed computing infrastructure This project studies architecture of distributed computing infrastructure. We develop software to build and operate the infrastructure, including testbeds for R&D and infrastructure for the production-ready operation. Our research themes include: an authentication system and middleware for distributed computing infrastructure. recent publications/talks: - Shigetoshi Yokohama, Yoshinobu Masatani, Tazro Ohta, Osamu Ogasawara, Nobukazu Yoshioka, Kai Liu, Kento Aida, Reproducible Scientific Computing Environment with Overlay Cloud Architecture, Proceedings of the 9th IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing (IEEE CLOUD 2016), Jul. 2016

Scheduling and resource management This project studies novel scheduling
algorithms for parallel and distributed computing systems. We also develop software
for scheduling and resource management. Research themes include: parallel
job scheduling algorithms on a cluster, interactive scheduling software on grids
and clouds, market-based resource allocation algorithms on clouds, load balancing algorithms for inter-clouds, and scheduling for MapReduce applications. - Hayata Ohnaga, Kento Aida, Omar Abdul-Rahman, Performance of Hadoop Application on Hybrid Cloud, Proceedings of the International Conference on Cloud Computing Research and Innovation (ICCCRI2015), Oct. 2015

Application software
This project develops application software that runs efficiently on parallel and distributed computing systems. Research
themes include: optimization using parallel branch and bound algorithms, optimization
of baseball strategy, crop parameter identification using satellite images, and astrophysical simulation. - Kazutaka Motoyama, Yoshikazu Tanaka, Kento Aida, Eisaku Sakane, Kenichi Miura, Effective system for simulating dust continuum observations on distributed computing resources, Journal of Space Science Informatics Japan, 3(), pp.155-161, Mar. 2014
