Heterogeneous clusters and grid infrastructures are becoming increasingly popular. In these computing infrastructures, machines have different resources, including memory sizes, d...
Abstract. We study in this paper several scheduling heuristics for GridRPC middlewares. When dealing with performance issue, the scheduling strategy is one of the most important fe...
Heterogeneous distributed computing platforms continue to require substantial effort in terms of software installation and management for efficient use, often necessitating manua...
Grid technologies are emerging as the next generation of distributed computing, allowing the aggregation of resources that are geographically distributed across different location...
In this paper we consider, compare and analyze three game theoretical Grid resource allocation mechanisms. Namely, 1) the non-cooperative sealed-bid method where tasks are auction...
