In recent years, we have witnessed a growing interest in high performance computing (HPC) using a cluster of workstations. However, many challenges remain to be resolved before th...
It has become increasingly popular to construct large parallel computers by connecting many inexpensive nodes built with commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) parts. These clusters can ...
Application scheduling plays an important role in high-performance cluster computing. Application scheduling can be classified as job scheduling and task scheduling. This paper pre...

An important requirement for the effective scheduling of parallel applications on large heterogeneous clusters is a current view of system resource availability. Maintaining such ...
We propose several models based on discrete-time Markov chains for the analysis of Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs). Specifically, we examine the Pastry routing protocol, as well a...
