A new quality metric, called area, is introduced for schedules that execute dags, i.e., computations having intertask dependencies. Motivated by the temporal unpredictability enco...
Effective task scheduling and deployment is hard to achieve in a Grid environment, where computing resources are heterogamous and shared between local and Grid users without a cen...
— The efforts to construct a national scale Grid computing environment have brought unprecedented computing capacity and complicacy. Exploiting this complex infrastructure requir...
The lifetime of wireless sensor networks can be increased by minimizing the number of active nodes that provide complete coverage, while switching off the rest. In this paper, we ...
The aIOLi project aims at optimizing the I/O accesses within the cluster by providing a simple POSIX API, thus avoiding the constraints to use a dedicated parallel I/O library. Th...
