Grid computing is an important mechanism for utilizing distributed computing resources. These resources are distributed in different geographical locations, but are organized to p...
Abstract. This paper addresses the problem of building scalable semantic overlay networks. Our approach follows the principle of data independence by separating a logical layer, th...
Resource selection is fundamental to the performance of master/slave applications. In this paper, we address the problem of promoting performance for distributed master/slave appl...
Data grids deal with a huge amount of data regularly. It is a fundamental challenge to ensure efficient accesses to such widely distributed data sets. Creating replicas to a suita...
Users of distributed systems such as the TeraGrid and Open Science Grid can execute their applications on many different systems. We wish to help such users, or the grid scheduler...
