In parallel computing environments such as HPC clusters and the Grid, data-intensive applications involve large overhead costs due to a concentration of access to the files on co...
We consider a two-tiered Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) consisting of sensor clusters deployed around strategic locations and base-stations (BSs) whose locations are relatively fl...

Recent research in multi-site parallel job scheduling leverages user-provided estimates of job communication characteristics to effectively partition the job across multiple clus...
Clustering and scheduling of tasks for parallel implementation is a well researched problem. Several techniques have been presented in the literature to improve performance and re...
We consider the problem of preemptive scheduling on uniformly related machines. We present a semi-online algorithm which, if the optimal makespan is given in advance, produces an ...
