In this paper we propose a parallel hybrid genetic method for solving Quadratic 3-dimensional Assignment Problem (Q3AP). This problem is proved to be computationally NP-hard. The ...
In this article a new algorithm for grid resource allocation based upon the theory of Algorithmic Mechanism Design (AMD) is presented. This algorithm is targeted at minimizing cost...
This paper discusses the impact of the hierarchical master-worker paradigm on performance of an application program, which solves an optimization problem by a parallel branch and ...
Abstract. We address parallel jobs scheduling problem for computational GRID systems. We concentrate on two-level hierarchy scheduling: at the first level broker allocates computa...
This paper addresses the potential benefit of sharing jobs between independent sites in a grid computing environment. Also the aspect of parallel multi-site job execution on diff...
