Clusters and distributed systems offer fault tolerance and high performance through load sharing, and are thus attractive in real-time applications. When all computers are up and ...
We consider a heterogeneous computing environment that consists of a collection of machines and task types. The machines vary in capabilities and different task types are better su...

This paper investigates scheduling loosely coupled task-bundles in highly heterogeneous distributed systems. Two allocation quality metrics are used in pay-per-service distributed ...
HARNESS is an experimental metacomputing system that supports dynamic software reconfiguration, both of the resources that comprise the virtual machine and the services provided t...
In a real-time system, tasks are constrained by global endto-end (E-T-E) deadlines. In order to cater for high task schedulability, these deadlines must be distributed over compon...
