The majority of CPUs now sold contain multiple computing cores. However, current desktop grid computing systems either ignore the multiplicity of cores, or treat them as distinct,...
DIET (Distributed Interactive Engineering Toolbox) is a toolbox for the construction of Network Enabled Server (NES) systems. For most NES systems, as for most grid middleware sys...
In this paper we consider the following scenario. A set of n jobs with different threads is being run concurrently. Each job has an associated weight, which gives the proportion ...

Volunteer-based grid computing resources are characteristically volatile and frequently become unavailable due to the autonomy that owners maintain over them. This resource volati...
In multicluster systems, and more generally, in grids, jobs may require co-allocation, i.e., the simultaneous allocation of resources such as processors and input files in multipl...
