Experience with generating simulation data of high energy physics experiments has shown that a job monitoring system (JMS) is essential to understand failures of jobs within the G...
Workforce planning is an important activity that enables organizations to determine the workforce needed for continued success. A workforce planning problem is a very complex task...
— This paper describes work in progress to extend component models to support Master-Worker applications and to let them to be executed on Grid infrastructures. The proposed appr...
We study a version of the β-assignment problem [3] on asynchronous rings: consider a set of items and a set of m colors, where each item is associated to one color. Consider also...

Service Oriented Architectures are emerging as the recommended paradigm for developing dispersed escience environments. In this paper we analyze the characteristics and requiremen...
The growing computational and storage needs of several scientific applications mandate the deployment of extreme-scale parallel machines, such as IBM’s Blue Gene/L which can acc...
CC-NUMA is a widely adopted and deployed architecture of high performance computers. These machines are attractive for their transparent access to local and remote memory. However...
We show that timed automata can be used to model and to analyze timeliness properties of embedded system architectures. Using a case study inspired by industrial practice, we pres...
In this paper a novel job allocation scheme in distributed systems (TAG) is modelled using the Markovian process algebra PEPA. This scheme requires no prior knowledge of job size ...
The paper presents a new distributed metaheuristic algorithm in an optimal control problem related to the cooling process in the continuous casting of steel. The optimization task...
