The idle computers on a local area, campus area, or even wide area network represent a significant computational resource--one that is, however, also unreliable, heterogeneous, an...
—In an attempt to increase the performance/cost ratio, large compute clusters are becoming heterogeneous at multiple levels: from asymmetric processors, to different system archi...
Abstract. Interoperability remains a fundamental challenge when connecting heterogeneous systems which encounter and spontaneously communicate with one another in pervasive computi...

Abstract. Recent advances in software and hardware for clustered computing have allowed scientists and computing specialists to take advantage of commodity processors in solving ch...
An important requirement for the effective scheduling of parallel applications on large heterogeneous clusters is a current view of system resource availability. Maintaining such ...
