In this work we report on data gathered via a deployment of a monitoring and benchmarking infrastructure on two production grid platforms, TeraGrid and Geon. Our result show that t...
—Divisible loads are those workloads that can be partitioned by a scheduler into any arbitrary chunks. The problem of scheduling divisible loads has been defined for a long time,...
In this article a new algorithm for grid resource allocation based upon the theory of Algorithmic Mechanism Design (AMD) is presented. This algorithm is targeted at minimizing cost...
Distributed computations, dealing with large amounts of data, are scheduled in Grid clusters today using either a task-centric mechanism, or a worker-centric mechanism. Because of ...
Many optimization techniques have been adopted for efficient job scheduling in grid computing, such as: genetic algorithms, simulated annealing and stochastic methods. Such techni...
