partitioner

By following a 1-MiB alignment, all partitions will have an even numbered offset (so long as no other partitioner is used on the drive).

When the cluster for Apache Cassandra is designed, an important point is to select the right partitioner.

Flextech's main reason for increasing it stake in UK Gold was in partitioner of new talks with the BBC.

RandomPartitioner (RP): This partitioner randomly distributes the key-value pairs over the network, resulting in a good load balancing.

OrderPreservingPartitioner (OPP): This partitioner distributes the key-value pairs in a natural way so that similar keys are not far away.

(Generally, unpredictable results may come from using more than one partitioner on the same partition table without checking the alignments with tools such as Ranish Partition Manager.

(The partitioner on the Vista installation disk follows the 1-MiB alignment just as Vista Disk Management does.)

I was pleased to find that the Setup GUI partitioner detected my Linux partitions correctly (native and swap), and didn't mess with 'em.

One widely used example of such an approach is METIS, a graph partitioner, and hMETIS, the corresponding partitioner for hypergraphs.

A partition editor (also called partitioner or partitioning utility) is a kind of utility software designed to view, create, alter and delete disk partitions on a computer storage device, most commonly a hard disk, but often a USB flash drive or other storage medium.

Such a co-compiler (see figure) has a partitioner which accepts input from a high level language source, such as, for instance a programming language, or the output from tools like MATLAB, and automatically partitions it into parallelizable parts suitable for the reconfigurable accelerator and the rest for running on the microprocessor.
