We consider how to efficiently allocate computing resources in order to infer the best of a finite set of simulated systems, where best means that the system has the maximal expec...
Dedicated computing clusters are typically sized based on an expected average workload over a period of years, rather than on peak workloads, which might exist for relatively shor...

Manual management of public key credentials can be a significant and often off-putting obstacle to Grid use, particularly for casual users. We describe the Portal-based User Regis...
