Supercomputers need a huge budget to be built and maintained. To maximize the usage of their resources, application developers spend time to optimize the code of the parallel appl...
In multicluster systems, and more generally, in grids, jobs may require co-allocation, i.e., the simultaneous allocation of resources such as processors and input files in multipl...
Performance evaluation of applications running on a Grid is a challenging task. Grid's resources are heterogeneous in nature, often shared, and dynamic, all of which have imp...
File systems that allocate data contiguously often use bitmaps to representand managefree space. Increases in the size of storage to be managed creates a needfor eficient algorith...
Heterogeneous distributed computing systems often must operate in an environment where system parameters are subject to uncertainty. Robustness can be defined as the degree to wh...
