: Computational grids that couple geographically distributed resources are becoming the de-facto computing platform for solving large-scale problems in science, engineering, and co...
—Grid system software is inherently complex, hard to build and maintain. In this paper, we propose a selfmanaging building block: Grid Unit, which facilitates constructing Grid s...

Task scheduling is an integrated component of computing. With the emergence of grid and ubiquitous computing, newer challenges have arisen in task scheduling. Unlike traditional p...
We describe a software architecture for storage services in computational grid environments. Based upon a lightweight message-passing paradigm, the architecture enables the provis...
Monitoring and information services form a key component of a distributed system, or Grid. A quantitative study of such services can aid in understanding the performance limitatio...
