Managing the execution of scientific applications in a heterogeneous grid computing environment can be a daunting task, particularly for long running jobs. Increasing fault tolera...
Despite the advantages offered by pure Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks (e.g. robustness and fault tolerance), a crucial requirement is to guarantee basic security properties, such as ...
Desktop Grids have proved to be a suitable platform for the execution of Bag-of-Tasks applications but, being characterized by a high resource volatility, require the availability ...
