This paper presents a performance analysis of marketbased batch schedulers for clusters of workstations. In contrast to previous work, we use user-centric performance metrics as t...
Using off-the-shelf commodity workstations to build a cluster for parallel computing has become a common practice. In studying or designing a cluster of workstations one should ha...
This paper develops time-based rejuvenation policies to improve the performability measures of a cluster system. Three rejuvenation policies, namely standard rejuvenation, delayed...
Performance modeling and evaluation techniques are essential when designing and implementing distributed software systems. Constructing performance models for such systems can req...
