Rapid growth of the demand for computational power by scientific, business and web-applications has led to the creation of large-scale data centers consuming enormous amounts of el...
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...
We study how protocol design for various functionalities within a communication network architecture can be viewed as a distributed resource allocation problem. This involves unde...
Energy consumption is a major and costly problem in data centers. A large fraction of this energy goes to powering idle machines that are not doing any useful work. We identify tw...
