In a multicluster architecture, where jobs can be submitted through each constituent cluster, the job arrival rates in individual clusters may be uneven and the load therefore need...

We present an analytic technique for modeling load balancing policies on a cluster of servers conditioned on the fact that the service times of arriving tasks are drawn from heavy...
The aim of the paper is to introduce techniques in order to optimize the parallel execution time of sorting on heterogeneous platforms (processors speeds are related by a constant...
In the area of Grid computing, there is a growing need to process large amounts of data. To support this trend, we need to develop efficient parallel storage systems that can prov...
Thermal management is critical for clusters because of the increasing power consumption of modern processors, compact server architectures and growing server density in data center...
