Abstract. Autonomic computing networks manage multiple tasks over a distributed network of resources. In this paper, we view an autonomic computing system as a network of queues, w...
The fitness landscape of the resource constrained project scheduling problem is investigated by examining the search space position type distribution and the correlation between t...
We propose a hybrid algorithm (called ALPINE) between Genetic Algorithm and Dantzig's Simplex method to approximate optimal solutions for the Flexible Job-Shop Problem. Local...
Advance Reservations(AR) make it possible to guarantee the QoS of Grid applications by reserving a particular resource capability over a defined time interval on local resources. H...
This paper deals with the problem of scheduling aperiodic groups of tasks in distributed systems. It proposes two contributions, namely: i) a distributed scheduling algorithm to b...
