—Divisible loads are those workloads that can be partitioned by a scheduler into any arbitrary chunks. The problem of scheduling divisible loads has been defined for a long time,...
Multi-agent based simulation (MABS) is a discrete event simulation technique used to study complex systems with entities having social and autonomous behavior. MABS applications a...
Applications that use collections of very large, distributed datasets have become an increasingly important part of science and engineering. With high performance wide-area networ...
In this paper, a task parallel application is implemented with Ninf-G which is a GridRPC system, and experimented on, using the Grid testbed in Asia Pacific, for three months. The...
Previous experiments with high-performance Java were initially disappointing. After several years of optimization, this paper investigates the current suitability of such object-o...
