A major problem with time slicing on parallel machines is memory pressure, as the resulting paging activity damages the synchronism among a job’s processes. An alternative is to...
The use of today’s multicluster grids exhibits periods of submission bursts with periods of normal use and even of idleness. To avoid resource contention, many users employ obse...

Energy consumption and heat dissipation have become key considerations for modern high performance computer systems. In this paper, we focus on non-clairvoyant speed scaling to mi...
This paper examines the job exchange between parallel compute sites in a decentralized Grid scenario. Here, the local scheduling system remains untouched and continues normal oper...
