Connected world-widely distributed computers and data systems establish a global source of processing power and data, called a grid. Key properties of a grid are the fact that com...
In order for collective communication routines to achieve high performance on different platforms, they must be able to adapt to the system architecture and use different algori...
Abstract. In this paper we report on preliminary work and architectural design carried out in the "Data Management" work package in the International Data Grid project. O...
Abstract. We study the implementation on grid systems of an efficient algorithm for demanding global optimization problems. Specifically, we consider problems arising in the geneti...
Data replication is a key issue in a Data Grid and can be managed in different ways and at different levels of granularity: for example, at the file level or object level. In the ...
