We propose coupling based on contracts as a mechanism to address the problem of exchanging information between parties that require information to work together. Specifically, we s...
Replication in grid file systems can significantly improves I/O performance of data-intensive applications. However, most of existing replication techniques apply to individual ...
Exploiting the graphics processing unit (GPU) is useful to obtain higher performance with a less number of host machines in grid systems. One problem in GPU-accelerated grid system...
Effective task scheduling and deployment is hard to achieve in a Grid environment, where computing resources are heterogamous and shared between local and Grid users without a cen...
Grid computing is an important mechanism for utilizing distributed computing resources. These resources are distributed in different geographical locations, but are organized to p...
