In parallel computing environments such as HPC clusters and the Grid, data-intensive applications involve large overhead costs due to a concentration of access to the files on co...
Running Data Grid applications such as High Energy Nuclear Physics (HENP) and weather modelling experiments involves working with huge data sets possibly of hundreds of Terabytes ...
In this paper, our contributions are two-fold: First, we enhance the Min-Min and Sufferage heuristics under three risk modes driven by security concerns. Second, we propose a new ...
Abstract. In both research fields, Case-Based Reasoning and Reinforcement Learning, the system under consideration gains its expertise from experience. Utilizing this fundamental c...
Traditional resource management techniques (resource allocation, admission control and scheduling) have been found to be inadequate for many shared Grid and distributed systems th...
