The need to conduct and manage large sets of experiments for scientific applications dramatically increased over the last decade. However, there is still very little tool support ...
In the past, efficient parallel algorithms have always been developed specifically for the successive generations of parallel systems (vector machines, shared-memory machines, d...
In this paper, we provide an overview of Logistical Runtime System (LoRS). LoRS is an integrated ensemble of tools and services that aggregate primitive (best effort, faulty) stor...

Grid computing focuses on making use of a very large amount of resources from a large-scale computing environment. It intends to deliver high-performance computing over distribute...
Experimental performance studies on computer systems, including Grids, require deep understandings on their workload characteristics. The need arises from two important and closel...
