Abstract. We describe the design and implementation of the Distributed ObjectOriented Threads System (DOTS). This system is a complete redesign of the Distributed Threads System (D...
Abstract. Monitoring systems are nowadays ubiquitous in complex environments, such as Grids. Their use is fundamental for performance evaluation, problem spotting, advanced debuggi...
Scientific workflows are a powerful programming technique for specifying complex computations using a number of otherwise independent components. When used in a Grid environment, ...
Transactional Memory (TM) is a promising technique that simplifies parallel programming for shared-memory applications. To date, most TM systems have been designed to efficientl...
Several works on grid computing have been proposed in the last years. However, most of them, including available software, can not deal properly with some issues related to contro...
