Conventional performance evaluation mechanisms focus on dedicated distributed systems. Grid computing infrastructure, on another hand, is a shared collaborative environment constr...
This paper investigates profit optimisation by the partitioning of server pools. Different types of web requests are considered in this paper: best-effort requests and multi-class...
Large distributed Grid systems pose new challenges in job scheduling due to complex workload characteristics and system characteristics. Due to the numerous parameters that must b...
Eight successively refined simulation models for the earthmoving operations involved in the construction of a dam provide the foundation for illustrating the ease and effectivenes...
Modern embedded systems for image processing involve increasingly complex levels of functionality under real-time and resourcerelated constraints. As this complexity increases, th...
