Checkpointing is a very effective technique to tolerate the occurrence of failures in distributed and parallel applications. The existing algorithms in the literature are basicall...
This paper studies the QoS-aware replica placement problem. Although there has been much work on replica placement problem, most of them concerns average system performance and ign...
Gradual patterns highlight complex order correlations of the form “The more/less X, the more/less Y”. Only recently algorithms have appeared to mine efficiently gradual rules. ...
This paper studies distributed scheduling of parallel I/O data transfers on systems that provide data replication. In our previous work, we proposed a centralized algorithm for so...
Multiprocessor task scheduling is an important and computationally difficult problem. This paper proposes a comparison study of genetic algorithm and list scheduling algorithm. Bo...
