Computational grids hold great promise in utilizing geographically separated heterogeneous resources to solve large-scale complex scientific problems. However, a number of major ...
Even though middleware support for grid computing has been the subject of extensive research, scheduling policies for the grid context have not been much studied. In addition to p...
This paper describes the study conducted to design and evaluate a two-level on-line scheduler to dynamically schedule a stream of sequential and multi-threaded batch jobs on large...

We design an incentive-compatible mechanism for scheduling n non-malleable parallel jobs on a parallel system comprising m identical processors. Each job is owned by a selfish us...
User constraints such as deadlines are important requirements that are not considered by existing cloud-based data processing environments such as Hadoop. In the current implementa...
