The problem of scheduling a parallel program given by a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) of tasks is a well-studied area. We present a new approach which employs Differential Evolution...
Ever more scientists are employing large-scale distributed systems such as grids for their computational work, instead of tightly coupled high-performance computing systems. Howev...

Distributed computations, dealing with large amounts of data, are scheduled in Grid clusters today using either a task-centric mechanism, or a worker-centric mechanism. Because of ...
High availability plays an important role in heterogeneous clusters, where processors operate at different speeds and are not continuously available for processing. Existing sched...
This paper investigates the scheduling of mixed-parallel applications, which exhibit both task and data parallelism, in advance reservations settings. Both the problem of minimizi...
