Temporal networks play a crucial role in modeling temporal relations in planning and scheduling applications. Temporal Networks with Alternatives (TNAs) were proposed to model alte...
A grid has to provide strong incentive for participating sites to join and stay in it. Participating sites are concerned with the performance improvement brought by the gird for th...
In this paper, we present a checkpoint-based scheme to improve the turnaround time of bag-of-tasks applications executed on institutional desktop grids. We propose to share checkp...
In this paper, we present algorithms for Grid resource provisioning that employ agreement-based resource management. These algorithms allow userlevel resource allocation and sched...
Grid workflow can be defined as the composition of grid application services which execute on heterogeneous and distributed resources in a well-defined order to accomplish a speci...
