MCT is a widely used heuristic for scheduling tasks onto grid platforms. However, when dealing with many tasks, MCT tends to dramatically delay already mapped task completion time...
The algorithmic framework developed for improving heuristic solutions of the new version of deterministic TSP [Choi et al., 2002] is extended to the stochastic case. To verify the...
The Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem(RCPSP) is a significant challenge in highly regulated industries, such as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, where a large numb...
This paper introduces Pact, a new model for parallel heuristic programming on MIMD machines. Designed and implemented as an integrated tool environment, Pact allows the user to dev...
Dynamic UML models like sequence diagrams (SD) lack sufficient formal semantics, making it difficult to build automated tools for their analysis, simulation and validation. A commo...
