Experimental performance studies on computer systems, including Grids, require deep understandings on their workload characteristics. The need arises from two important and closel...
Abstract. The success of Internet telephony services like Skype illustrates the feasibility of utilizing unstructured Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks as an economical platform for supp...
In this paper we consider the problem of maximising utility in linked market-driven distributed and Grid systems. In such systems, users submit jobs through brokers who can virtua...
This paper presents an automated performance tuning solution, which partitions a program into a number of tuning sections and finds the best combination of compiler options for e...
Before an application modelled as a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is executed on a heterogeneous system, a DAG mapping policy is often enacted. After mapping, the tasks (in the DAG...
