In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm that improves the performance of static task scheduling. Our algorithm is based on the list-scheduling mechanism. For the listing p...
In this paper, we report the design, implementation and experimental results of Machine Bank, a system engineered towards the popular shared-lab scenario, where users outnumber av...
The Service Level Agreement (SLA) based grid superscheduling approach promotes coordinated resource sharing. Superscheduling is facilitated between administratively and topologica...
Timing failures refer to a situation where the environment in which a system operates does not behave as expected regarding the timing assumptions, that is, the timing constraints...
The goal of online failure prediction is to forecast imminent failures while the system is running. This paper compares Similar Events Prediction (SEP) with two other well-known t...
