In a desktop grid model, the job (computational task) is submitted for execution in the resource only when the resource is idle. There is no guarantee that the job which has starte...
—The functional heterogeneity of non-dedicated computational grids will increase with the inclusion of resources from desktop grids, P2P systems, and even mobile grids. Machine f...
—This paper describes a study of predicting machine availabilities and user presence in a pool of desktop computers. The study is based on historical traces collected from 32 mac...
