Production grids have a potential for parallel execution of a very large number of tasks but also introduce a high overhead that significantly impacts the execution of short task...
There is an increasing interest in integrating Javabased, and in particular Jini systems, with the emerging Grid infrastructures. In this paper we explore various ways of integrat...
Services oriented grids will be more prominent among other kinds of grids in the present distributed environments. With the advent of online government services the governmental g...
In this paper we propose a systematic approach to performance analysis of workflow applications on the Grid. We introduce an ideal model for the workflow execution time and explain...
