Advance reservation allows users to request available nodes in the future, whereas economy provides an incentive for resource owners to be part of the Grid, and encourages users t...
We propose, implement and evaluate three admission models for computational Grids. The models take the expected demand into account and offer a specific performance guarantee. Th...
—We consider a multiarmed bandit problem where the expected reward of each arm is a linear function of an unknown scalar with a prior distribution. The objective is to choose a s...
