Executing long-running parallel applications in Opportunistic Grid environments composed of heterogeneous, shared user workstations, is a daunting task. Machines may fail, become ...
The Do-All problem is about scheduling t similar and independent tasks to be performed by p processors prone to crashes. We assume that the distributed system is synchronous with ...

In collaboration architectures, a computer must perform both processing and transmission tasks. Intuitively, it seems that these independent tasks should be executed in concurrent ...
With the increasing importance of energy consumption considerations and new requirements of emerging applications, in-network processing of information gains recognition as a viab...
The bag-of-tasks application model, albeit simple, arises in many application domains and has received a lot of attention in the scheduling literature. Previous works propose eithe...
