Current projects that automate the collection of provenance information use a centralized architecture for managing the resulting metadata - that is, provenance is gathered at rem...
We propose a novel approach, called Dynamic Fractional Resource Scheduling (DFRS), to share homogeneous cluster computing platforms among competing jobs. DFRS leverages virtual mac...
Over the last decade, Message Passing Interface (MPI) has become a very successful parallel programming environment for distributed memory architectures such as clusters. However, ...
Though plenty of research has been conducted to improve Internet P2P streaming quality perceived by endusers, little has been known about the upper bounds of achievable performanc...
We propose, implement and evaluate three admission models for computational Grids. The models take the expected demand into account and offer a specific performance guarantee. Th...
