This paper studies distributed scheduling of parallel I/O data transfers on systems that provide data replication. In our previous work, we proposed a centralized algorithm for so...
In contrast to alpha-numerical data, multimedia data can have a wide range of quality parameters such as spatial and temporal resolution, and compression format. Users can request ...
Recent work has shown the advantages of using persistent memory for transaction processing. In particular, the Vista transaction system uses recoverable memory to avoid disk I/O, ...
Existing data grid scheduling systems handle huge data I/O via replica location services coupled with simple staging, decoupled from scheduling of computing tasks. However, when th...
This paper describes a major restructuring of PROuST, a method for protein structure comparison, for an efficient porting to the Grid. PROuST consists of different components: an...
