A major challenge in Metacomputing Systems (Computational Grids) is to effectively use their shared resources, such as compute cycles, memory, communication network, and data repo...

Scheduling computational tasks on processors is a key issue for high-performance computing. Although a large number of scheduling heuristics have been presented in the literature,...
Abstract. This paper is devoted to scheduling a large collection of independent tasks onto a distributed heterogeneous platform, which is composed of a set of servers. Each server ...
In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm that improves the performance of static task scheduling. Our algorithm is based on the list-scheduling mechanism. For the listing p...
Heterogeneity has been considered in scheduling, but without taking into account the temporal variation of completion times of the sub-tasks for a divisible, independent task. In ...
