TOPSAW program was developed by Dr. S. Chang and his team and has been successfully used in the replication of sawmill cutting to determine the optimal cutting pattern for a log t...
The task management is a key point in grid applications and can highly influence their efficiency. There are many solutions that we can classify according to their centralizatio...
In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of two mechanisms for fault-tolerance and recovery for complex scientific workflows on computational grids. We present our ...
