Distributed computations, dealing with large amounts of data, are scheduled in Grid clusters today using either a task-centric mechanism, or a worker-centric mechanism. Because of ...
Abstract. Database systems have been vital for all forms of data processing for a long time. In recent years, the amount of processed data has been growing dramatically, even in sm...
In multicluster systems, and more generally, in grids, jobs may require co-allocation, i.e., the simultaneous allocation of resources such as processors and input files in multipl...
Data replication can help database systems meet the stringent temporal constraints of current time-critical applications, especially Internet-based services. A prerequisite, howev...
