Grid jobs often consist of a large number of tasks. If the performance of a statically scheduled grid job is unsatisfactory, one must decide which code of which task should be imp...
In this paper we analyse the requirements of performing parallel transaction-oriented simulations within loosely coupled systems like Ad Hoc Grids. We focus especially on the spac...
The LAPACK software project currently under development is intended to provide a portable linear algebra library for high performance computers. LAPACK will make use of the Level 1...
In this paper, we present a study on the fault tolerance nature of the island model when applied to Genetic Algorithms. Parallel and distributed models have been extensively appli...
