Clusters and distributed systems offer fault tolerance and high performance through load sharing. When all computers are up and running, we would like the load to be evenly distri...
In completely symmetric systems that have homogeneous nodes (hosts, computers, or processors) with identical arrival processes, an optimal static load balancing scheme does not in...
Grid computing provides new solutions for numerous complex problems. It is an inevitable trend to implement the distributed parallel computing of large-scale problems with the gri...
Program parallelization requires mapping computation and data to processing elements. Navigational Programming (NavP), based on the principle of migrating computations, offers a d...

Vector timestamps provide a way of recording the causal relationships between events in a distributed computation. We draw attention to a limitation of such timestamps when used t...
