Scientists are increasingly using large distributed systems built from commodity off-the-shelf components to perform scientific computation. Grid computing has expanded the scale ...
In this paper, we survey three generation of reflective middleware research carried out at Lancaster University, present experiences gained from this research, and highlight a num...
— Grid computing requires network services beyond what is currently provided by the Best-Effort Internet. Among the different approaches towards network Quality of Service, aggre...
The goal of this research is to develop performance profiles of parallel and distributed applications in order to predict their execution time under different network conditions....
: E-Science often requires access to remote Grid computing platforms. Current authorization systems on these remote systems have largely based decisions solely on the identity of t...
