Abstract. We describe the idea of a Science Gateway, an applicationspecific task wrapped as a web service, and some examples of these that are being implemented on the US TeraGrid...
Process/thread migration and checkpointing schemes support load balancing, load sharing and fault tolerance to improve application performance and system resource usage on worksta...
Monte-Carlo simulations are used in many applications, such as option pricing and portfolio evaluation. Due to their high computational load and intrinsic parallelism, they are id...
We propose a biologically inspired and fully-decentralized approach to the organization of computation that is based on the autonomous scheduling of strongly mobile agents on a pe...
