The problem of scheduling independent tasks on heterogeneous trees is considered. The nodes of the tree may have different processing times, and links different communication time...
Cloud computing is increasingly considered as an additional computational resource platform for scientific workflows. The cloud offers opportunity to scale-out applications from d...
The bag-of-tasks application model, albeit simple, arises in many application domains and has received a lot of attention in the scheduling literature. Previous works propose eithe...
e some simple working environment abstractions that hide the configuration heterogeneity of the machines that compose the grid from the user. Second, we introduce Work Queue with R...
