This paper presents a comprehensive statistical analysis of workloads collected on data-intensive clusters and Grids. The analysis is conducted at different levels, including Virt...
Market-based compute grids encompass service providers offering limited resources to potential users with varying demands and willingness to pay. Providers face difficult decisions...
Abstract. The commercial exploitation of the emerging Grid and Cloud markets needs SLAs to sell computing run times. Job traces show that users have a limited ability to estimate t...
In this paper, we present an algorithm for scheduling of distributed data intensive Bag-of-Task applications on Data Grids that have costs associated with requesting, transferring ...
While fault-tolerance is desirable for grid applications because of the distributed and dynamic nature of grid resources, it has seldom been considered in static scheduling. We pr...
