We consider networks of workstations which are not only timesharing, but also heterogeneous with a large variation in the computing power and memory capacities of different workst...
In this study, we investigate the task scheduling problem in heterogeneous computing environments and propose a novel scheduling algorithm, called the Artificial Immune System wit...
—This paper describes the application of various search techniques to the problem of automatic empirical code optimization. The search process is a critical aspect of auto-tuning...
A task that suspends itself to wait for an I/O completion or to wait for an event from another node in distributed environments is called an I/O blocking task. In conventional har...
Presently, many distributed multimedia systems adapt to their changing environments and Quality of Service (QoS) requirements by exchanging control and feedback data between server...
