The crew planning problem has been successfully solved on a loosely connected network of workstations (NOW) using advanced computational techniques and efficient communication pat...
Grid services provide an important abstract layer on top of heterogeneous components (hardware and software) that take part into a grid environment. We are developing a data grid s...
In this paper we consider the online scheduling of jobs, which require processing on a number of machines simultaneously. These jobs are presented to a decision maker one by one, ...
