Volunteer Computing (VC) projects harness the power of computers owned by volunteers across the Internet to perform hundreds of thousands of independent jobs. In VC projects, the ...
This paper examines the issue of dynamically scheduling applications on a wide-area network computing system. We construct a simulation model for wide-area task allocation problem...
Predominant resources for execution of any application are computational power and memory. On one side, computational power has grown many folds faster than memory capacity. On th...
—The ever increasing scale and complexity of large computational systems ask for sophisticated management tools, paving the way toward Autonomic Computing. A first step toward A...
Recent research in multi-site parallel job scheduling leverages user-provided estimates of job communication characteristics to effectively partition the job across multiple clus...
