Upper bound constraints are often set when complex scientific or business processes are modelled as grid workflow specifications. However, many existing processes such as climate ...
Abstract—This paper examines the economics of cloud computing charging from the perspective of a supercomputing resource provider offering its own resources. To evaluate the comp...
Data replication is a key issue in a Data Grid and can be managed in different ways and at different levels of granularity: for example, at the file level or object level. In the ...
Performance evaluation of complex systems is a critical issue and bounds computation provides confidence about service quality, reliability, etc. of such systems. The stochastic ...
1 Soft errors induced by radiation are an increasing problem in the microelectronic field. Although traditional models estimate the reliability of memories suffering Single Event U...
