Resource performance in the Computational Grid is not only heterogeneous, but also changing dynamically. However scheduling algorithms designed for traditional parallel and distri...
Developing countries face significant challenges in network access, making even simple network tasks unpleasant. Many standard techniques—caching and predictive prefetching— ...
Users and developers of grid applications have access to increasing numbers of resources. While more resources generally mean higher capabilities for an application, they also rai...
This paper examinestheimplicationsofgang schedulingfor generalpurpose multiprocessors. The workloads in these environments include both compute-bound parallel jobs, which often re...
