Long term load prediction can assist task scheduling and load balancing greatly in distributed environment such as computational grid. Due to the dynamic property of grid environm...
—Modern large-scale grid computing for processing advanced science and engineering applications relies on geographically distributed clusters. In such highly distributed environm...

— Over the years, the use of global grid environments have become widespread. In order to make applications robust against the dynamics of those grid environments it is essential...
The choice of a good annealing schedule is necessary for good performance of simulated annealing for combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we pose the simulated anne...
