Grid computing systems that have been the focus of much research activities in recent years provide a virtual framework for controlled sharing of resources across institutional bo...
The performance skeleton of an application is a short running program whose execution time in any scenario reflects the estimated execution time of the application it represents....
In this paper we propose a parallel hybrid genetic method for solving Quadratic 3-dimensional Assignment Problem (Q3AP). This problem is proved to be computationally NP-hard. The ...
Despite recent developments in higher-level middleware for the Grid supporting high level of ease-of-programming, hurdles for widespread adoption of Grids remain high, due to (1) ...
