As computing systems grow in complexity, the cluster and grid communities require more sophisticated tools to diagnose, debug and analyze such systems. We have developed a toolkit...

Consider a robot whose task is to pick up some colored balls from a grid, taking the red balls to a red spot, the blue balls to a blue spot and so on, one by one, without knowing e...
In this paper we propose the double auction allocation model for grids, and three double auction protocols for resource allocation: Preston-McAfee Double Auction Protocol (PMDA), ...
The centralised management of distributed computing infrastructures presents a number of considerable challenges, not least of which is the effective monitoring of physical resour...
For data analysis or simulations (e.g. in particle physics) single users submit hundreds or thousands of jobs to the Grid. This puts a new burden on the users side - keeping an ov...
