Low diversity in a genetic algorithm (GA) can cause the search to become stagnant upon reaching a local optimum. To some extent, non-stationary tasks avoid this problem, which woul...
Prefetching and caching are eective techniques for improving the performance of le systems, but they have not been studied in an integrated fashion. This paper proposes four pro...
The emergence of computational grids has lead to an increased reliance on task schedulers that can guarantee the completion of tasks that are executed on unreliable systems. There...
