The paper addresses the problem of matching and scheduling of DAG-structured application to both minimize the makespan and maximize the robustness in a heterogeneous computing sys...
We describe a peer-to-peer self-organizing overlay network for our global computing system. The preliminary simulation results show that the network has some smallworld characteri...

Volunteer Computing (VC) is a paradigm that takes advantage of idle cycles from computing resources donated by volunteers and connected through the Internet to compute large-scale...
BOINC, a middleware system for volunteer computing, involves projects, which distribute jobs, and hosts, which execute jobs. The local (host-level) scheduler addresses two issues:...
BOINC, a middleware system for volunteer computing, allows hosts to be attached to multiple projects. Each host periodically requests jobs from project servers and executes the jo...
