To make the most effective application placement decisions on volatile large-scale heterogeneous Grids, schedulers must consider factors such as resource speed, load, and reliabil...
We introduce the Multiagent Agreement Problem (MAP) to represent a class of multiagent scheduling problems. MAP is based on the Distributed Constraint Reasoning (DCR) paradigm and...
Effective scheduling is a key concern for the execution of performance driven Grid applications. In this paper, we propose a Dynamic Critical Path (DCP) based workflow scheduling ...
e some simple working environment abstractions that hide the configuration heterogeneity of the machines that compose the grid from the user. Second, we introduce Work Queue with R...

There has been a good amount of research over the past few years on the integration of mobile devices into computational grids. Little of it, however, has addressed the more chall...
