Utility functions can be used to represent the value users attach to job completion as a function of turnaround time. Most previous scheduling research used simple synthetic repre...
This paper presents a comprehensive statistical analysis of workloads collected on data-intensive clusters and Grids. The analysis is conducted at different levels, including Virt...
Advance Reservations(AR) make it possible to guarantee the QoS of Grid applications by reserving a particular resource capability over a defined time interval on local resources. H...
In order to enhance the performance of a computer, most modern processors use superscalar architecture and raise the clock frequency. Superscalar architecture can execute more than...
