Computational Grids are becoming an increasingly important and powerful platform for the execution of largescale, resource-intensive applications. However, it remains a challenge ...
A grid has to provide strong incentive for participating sites to join and stay in it. Participating sites are concerned with the performance improvement brought by the gird for th...
This paper examines the scalable parallel implementation of QR factorization of a general matrix, targeting SMP and multi-core architectures. Two implementations of algorithms-by-...
As users increasingly require better quality of service from Grids, resource management and scheduling mechanisms have to evolve in order to satisfy competing demands on limited r...
While standard parallel machine scheduling is concerned with good assignments of jobs to machines, we aim to understand how the quality of an assignment is affected if the jobsâ€...
