Abstract. We study in this paper several scheduling heuristics for GridRPC middlewares. When dealing with performance issue, the scheduling strategy is one of the most important fe...
—Due to the dynamic nature of grid environments, schedule algorithms always need assistance of a long-time-ahead load prediction to make decisions on how to use grid resources ef...
Construction activities take place in what can be called a dynamic virtual organization (VO). VOs require a secure, reliable, scalable information infrastructure that allows colla...
This paper presents the integration of application specific interfaces in the UNICORE Grid infrastructure. UNICORE provides a seamless and secure mechanism to access distributed s...
Abstract—Resource sharing on the Internet is becoming increasingly pervasive. Recently, there is growing interest in distributed systems such as peer-to-peer and grid, with effor...
