A major challenge in Metacomputing Systems (Computational Grids) is to effectively use their shared resources, such as compute cycles, memory, communication network, and data repo...

This paper presents a basic framework for applying static task scheduling techniques to arbitrarily-structured task systems whose targeted execution environment is comprised of fi...
To minimize the execution time of an iterative application in a heterogeneous parallel computing environment, an appropriate mapping scheme is needed for matching and scheduling th...

We consider the execution of a complex application on a heterogeneous "grid" computing platform. The complex application consists of a suite of identical, independent pr...
In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm that improves the performance of static task scheduling. Our algorithm is based on the list-scheduling mechanism. For the listing p...
