As the use of virtual machines (VMs) for scientific applications becomes more common, we encounter the need to integrate VM provisioning models into the existing resource managemen...
: Three fast mutual exclusion algorithms using read-modify-write and atomic read/write registers are presented in a sequence, with an improvement from one to the next. The last alg...
Grid computing is becoming the natural way to aggregate and share large and heterogeneous sets of resources. However, grid development and acceptance hinge on proving that grids r...
Applications that use collections of very large, distributed datasets have become an increasingly important part of science and engineering. With high performance wide-area networ...
The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a standard in parallel computing, and can also be used as a highperformance programming model for Grid application development. How to execu...
