Since the advent of electronic computing, the processors’ clock speed has risen tremendously. Now that energy efficiency requirements have stopped that trend, the number of proc...
This paper describes an architecture that provides support for quality of service (QoS) specification and enforcement in heterogeneous distributed computing systems. The Quartz Qo...
Component-based software development would allow application software be largely constructed, rather than programmed. This approach would dramatically improve the productivity of ...
Consider a multithreaded parallel application running inside a multicore virtual machine context that is itself hosted on a multi-socket multicore physical machine. How should the...
The paper presents various transparency issues that have to be considered during development of object-oriented Grid applications based on virtual repositories. Higher-level transp...
