Symmetric Multiprocessors (SMPs), combined with modern interconnection technologies are commonly used to build cost-effective compute clusters. However, contention among processor...
We propose a low overhead, on-line memory monitoring scheme utilizing a set of novel hardware counters. The counters act like pressure gauges indicating the marginal gain in the n...
Traditional resource management techniques (resource allocation, admission control and scheduling) have been found to be inadequate for many shared Grid and distributed systems th...
Construction activities take place in what can be called a dynamic virtual organization (VO). VOs require a secure, reliable, scalable information infrastructure that allows colla...
