It is well known that in a typical real-time system, certain parameters, such as the execution time of a job, are not fixed numbers. In such systems, it is common to characterize ...
The Web Service Resource Framework (WSRF) was announced in January 2004 as a new way for manipulating "stateful resources" to perform grid computing tasks using Web Serv...
In this paper, we present an algorithm for scheduling of distributed data intensive Bag-of-Task applications on Data Grids that have costs associated with requesting, transferring ...
In this chapter we present recent contributions in the field of sequential job scheduling on network machines which work in parallel; these are subject to temporary unavailability...
