Grid applications comprise several components and web-services that make them highly prone to the occurrence of transient software failures and aging problems. This type of failur...
Abstract— Metadata annotations of Grid resources can potentially be used for a number of purposes, including accurate resource allocation to jobs, discovery of services, and prec...
— Biomolecular simulations play a key role in the study of complex biological processes at microscopic levels in which macromolecules such as proteins are involved. The simulatio...

— In global Grid computing, users and resource providers organize various Virtual Organizations (VOs) to share resources and services. A VO organizes other sub-VOs for the purpos...
— This paper introduces a new concept of pluggable grid service, that provides seamless access to computational grids, based on aspect-oriented techniques. Pluggable grid service...
— Performing delegation in large scale, dynamic and distributed environments with large numbers of shared resources is more challenging than inside local administrative domains. ...
— One of the major challenges in managing resources of computational Grids with diverse shared resources is how to meet users' QoS requirements and rationally distribute res...
Application scheduling studies on large-scale shared resources have advocated the use of resource provisioning in the form of advance reservations for providing predictable and de...
Abstract— Markets and auctions have been proposed as mechanisms for efficiently and fairly allocating resources in a number of different computational settings. Economic approac...
