Queries over scientific data often imply expensive analyses of data requiring a lot of computational resources available in Grids. We are developing a customizable query processor...
This paper describes how Condor-pools could be joined together to form a large computational cluster-grid. In the architecture Jini provides the infrastructure for resource lookup,...
For data analysis or simulations (e.g. in particle physics) single users submit hundreds or thousands of jobs to the Grid. This puts a new burden on the users side - keeping an ov...
In this paper we present FailRank, a novel framework for integrating and ranking information sources that characterize failures in a grid system. After the failing sites have been...
Today’s cluster and grid environments demand the usage of product-specific APIs and tools for developing distributed applications. We give an overview of the Distributed Resour...
