Advance Reservations(AR) make it possible to guarantee the QoS of Grid applications by reserving a particular resource capability over a defined time interval on local resources. H...
In this paper we propose a framework dedicated to the development and the execution of parallel applications over large scale global computing platforms. A workflow programming env...
Grid services provide an important abstract layer on top of heterogeneous components (hardware and software) that take part into a grid environment. We are developing a data grid s...
Much experience has been gained with the protocols and mechanisms needed for discovery and allocation of remote computational resources. However, the preparation of a remote compu...
—Cloud Computing, born in the e-business context, and GRID computing, originated in the e-science context, are two different but similar paradigms for managing large sets of dist...
