In this paper, we present a Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB) policy for problems characterized by a highly irregular search tree, whereby no reliable workload prediction is available....
Grid-based sensor deployment is an effective and efficient practice for provisioning wireless sensor networks. Previous work has addressed grid-based deployment of sensors in orde...
Many useful applications of simulation in computational cell biology, e.g. kinetic parameter estimation, Metabolic Control Analysis (MCA), and bifurcation analysis, require a large...
A growing trend in the development and deployment of grid computing systems is decentralization. Decentralizing these systems helps make them more scalable and robust, but poses s...
In this paper, we consider a generic model of computational grids, seen as several clusters of homogeneous processors. In such systems, a key issue when designing efficient job al...
