Market-based resource management is becoming an emerging issue as the utilization of Grid computing is growing rapidly, particularly in the business field. In this paper, we prov...
Pilot-job systems have emerged as a computation paradigm to cope with heterogeneity of production grids, greatly improving fault ratios and latency. Tools like DIANE, WISDOM-II, To...
In this paper we have characterized the inter-arrival time and service time distributions for jobs at a large MPP supercomputing center. Our findings show that the distributions ...
