Managing the execution of scientific applications in a heterogeneous grid computing environment can be a daunting task, particularly for long running jobs. Increasing fault tolera...
Grid environments enable users to share non-dedicated resources that lack performance guarantees. This paper describes the design of application-centric middleware components to a...
Even though middleware support for grid computing has been the subject of extensive research, scheduling policies for the grid context have not been much studied. In addition to p...
The heterogeneous nature and independent administration of geographically dispersed resources in Grid, demand the need for access control using fine-grained policies. In this pape...

We describe a new, non-FCFS policy to schedule parallel jobs on systems that may be part of a computational grid. Our algorithm continuously monitors the system (i.e., the intensi...
