This paper addresses the problem of efficient execution of a batch of data-intensive tasks with batch-shared I/O behavior, on coupled storage and compute clusters. Two scheduling...
The Grid is realizing the vision of providing computation as utility: computation jobs can be scheduled on-demand in Grid hosts based on available computation capacity. In this pa...
—The ever increasing scale and complexity of large computational systems ask for sophisticated management tools, paving the way toward Autonomic Computing. A first step toward A...
Scheduling strategies for parallel and distributed computing have mostly been oriented toward performance, while striving to achieve some notion of fairness. With the increase in ...

We present in this article a new approximation algorithm for scheduling a set of n independent rigid (meaning requiring a fixed number of processors) jobs on hierarchical parallel ...
