Abstract. This paper presents a simulator for of a decentralized modular grid scheduler named MaGate. MaGate’s design emphasizes scheduler interoperability by providing intellige...
Grid computing systems pool together the resources of many workstations to create a virtual computing reservoir. Users can "draw" resources using a pay-as-you-go model, c...
Grid computing systems that have been the focus of much research activities in recent years provide a virtual framework for controlled sharing of resources across institutional bo...
Traditional resource management techniques (resource allocation, admission control and scheduling) have been found to be inadequate for many shared Grid and distributed systems th...
A model of honey bee social foraging is introduced to create an algorithm that solves a class of optimal resource allocation problems. We prove that if several such algorithms (&q...
