MCT is a widely used heuristic for scheduling tasks onto grid platforms. However, when dealing with many tasks, MCT tends to dramatically delay already mapped task completion time...
Real-time systems usually operate in an environment that changes continuously. These changes cause the performance of the system to vary during run time. An allocation of resource...
Network applications and services need to be environment-aware in order to meet non-functional requirements in increasingly dynamic contexts. In this paper we consider partition a...
This paper studies five real-world data intensive workflow applications in the fields of natural language processing, astronomy image analysis, and web data analysis. Data intensiv...
The design and implementation of a national computing system and data grid has become a reachable goal from both the computer science and computational science point of view. A di...
