—For modern scientific applications such as astrophysics, astronomy, aerography, and biology, a large amount of storage space is required because of the large-scale datasets. Dat...
— The execution of data intensive grid applications still raises several questions regarding job scheduling, data migration and replication. The optimization techniques applied b...
The increasingly common practice of replicating datasets and using resources as distributed data stores in Grid environments has led to the problem of determining which replica ca...
This paper addresses the problem of fine-grained data replication in large distributed systems, such as the Internet, so as to minimize the user access delays. With fine-grained d...
Users tend to use the Internet for “resource-hungry” applications (which involve content such as video, audio on-demand and distributed data) and at the same time, more and mo...
