This paper discusses the impact of the hierarchical master-worker paradigm on performance of an application program, which solves an optimization problem by a parallel branch and ...
Even though middleware support for grid computing has been the subject of extensive research, scheduling policies for the grid context have not been much studied. In addition to p...
For bulk synchronous computations that have nondeterministic behaviors, dynamic remapping is an effective approach to ensure parallel efficiency. There are two basic issues in re...
