Efficient and robust metacomputing requires the decomposition of complex jobs into tasks that must be scheduled on distributed processing nodes. There are various ways of creating...
A significant number of new Java-based technologies for mobile code (aka agents) have recently emerged. The 'Aglets' system, from IBM's research labs, provides an e...
This paper evaluates linear models for predicting the Digital Unix five-second load average from 1 to 30 seconds into the future. A detailed statistical study of a large number of...
Applications designed to execute on "computational grids" frequently require the simultaneous co-allocation of multiple resources in order to meet performance requiremen...
Advances in network technology continue to improve the communication performance of workstation and PC clusters, making high-performance workstation-clustercomputing increasingly ...
RSD (Resource and Service Description) is a software architecture for specifying, registering and accessing resources and services in complex heterogeneous computing environments....
This paper describes work in progress to develop a standard for interoperability among high-performance scientific components. This research stems from growing recognition that th...

We are developing a system for collaborative research and development for a distributed group of researchers at different institutions around the world. In a new paradigm for coll...
We describe our experience using PARED, an object oriented system for the adaptive solution of PDEs in a distributed computing environment. PARED handles selective mesh refinement...
