Networks of Workstations (NOW) have become important and cost-effective parallel platforms for scientific computations. In practice, a NOW system is heterogeneous and non-dedicat...
The grid security architecture today does not prevent certain unauthorized access to the files associated with a job executing on a remote machine. Programs and data are transferre...
This paper presents a new algorithm called List-based Load Balancing (LLB) for compile-time task scheduling on distributed-memory machines. LLB is intended as a cluster-mapping an...
