Abstract Competition and cooperation can boost the performance of a combinatorial search process. Both can be implemented with a portfolio of algorithms which run in parallel, give...
The efficient execution of irregular parallel applications on shared distributed systems requires novel approaches to scheduling, since both the application requirements and the sy...
The Grid approach provides the ability to access and use distributed resources as part of virtual organizations. The emerging Grid infrastructure gives rise to a class of scientif...
