Cluster tools are representatives of a special kind of tool where process times of jobs depend on the combination in which they are processed together on the tool and hence, depen...
Experimental performance studies on computer systems, including Grids, require deep understandings on their workload characteristics. The need arises from two important and closel...
Application run-time information is a fundamental component in application and job scheduling. However, accurate predictions of run times are difficult to achieve for parallel app...
