Grid Workflows are emerging as practical programming models for solving large e-scientific problems on the Grid. However, it is typically assumed that the workflow components eith...
Abstract In this paper, we focus on the problem of scheduling batches of identical task graphs on a heterogeneous platform, when the task graph consists in a tree. We rely on stead...
Conventional performance evaluation mechanisms focus on dedicated distributed systems. Grid computing infrastructure, on another hand, is a shared collaborative environment constr...
Synchronous Data Flow (SDF) is a well-known model of computation that is widely used in the control engineering and digital signal processing domains. Existing scheduling methods ...
The notion of resource reservation for obtaining real-time scheduling guarantees and enforcement of resource usage has gained strong support in recent years. However, much work on...
