ALPS is a per-application user-level proportional-share scheduler that operates with low overhead and without any special kernel support. ALPS is useful to a range of applications...
— This paper describes WOW, a distributed system that combines virtual machine, overlay networking and peerto-peer techniques to create scalable wide-area networks of virtual wor...

Consider a workload in which massively parallel tasks that require large resource pools are interleaved with short tasks that require fast response but consume fewer resources. We...

We develop an adaptive load distribution protocol for logical volume I/O workload in clustered storage systems. It exploits data redundancy among decentralized storage servers to ...
Most parallel computing resources are controlled by batch schedulers that place requests for computation in a queue until access to compute nodes is granted. Queue waiting times a...
Grid applications that use a considerable number of processors for their computations need effective predictions of the expected computation times on the different nodes. Currentl...
