Adaptive multiagent algorithms based upon the behaviour of social insects are powerful decentralised systems capable of solving complex problems. The intelligence of such a system ...
Abstract. In this paper we suggest a strategy to design job scheduling systems. To this end, we first split a scheduling system into three components: Scheduling policy, objective ...
Large scale data analysis and mining activities, such as identifying interesting trends, making unusual patterns to stand out and verifying hypotheses, require sophisticated infor...
In this paper we focus on the problem of making short and medium term forecasts of CPU availability on timeshared Unix systems. We evaluate the accuracy with which availability ca...
This paper describes a simulation tool for the analysis of complex jobs described in the form of task graphs. The simulation procedure relies on the PN-based topological represent...
