One of the key requirement for Grid infrastructures is the ability to share resources with nontrivial qualities of service. However, resource management in a decentralized infrast...
Data replication is an excellent technique to move and cache data close to users. By replication, data access performance can be improved dramatically. One of the challenges in da...
—Data replications is a typical strategy for improving access performance and data availability in Data Grid systems. Current works on data replication in Grid systems focus on t...
Data Grids provide geographically distributed resources for large-scale data-intensive applications that generate large data sets. However, ensuring efficient access to such huge...
