Resource discovery in a Grid environment is a critical problem, as a typical Grid system includes a very large number of resources, which must be readily identified and accessed ...
This paper presents Abacus, a service-oriented programming language designed for the development of grid applications. Abacus considers that all the grid resources constitute a un...
Parallel application development for Grids can from tools that abstract the underlying Grid middleware, hide the critical aspects of heterogeneous resources and provide utilities ...
— The coordinated sharing of resources to address computational problems is a central issue in environments of Grid computing. Two important scenarios arise from this issue. Firs...
Abstract. This paper outlines a feasible approach to ranking Grid resources based on an easily obtainable application-specific performance model utilizing low-level performance me...
