The general approach to fault tolerance in uniprocessor systems is to maintain enough time redundancy in the schedule so that any task instance can be re-executed in presence of f...
We consider the execution of a complex application on a heterogeneous "grid" computing platform. The complex application consists of a suite of identical, independent pr...
This paper proposes a comprehensive modeling architecture for workloads on parallel computers using Markov chains in combination with state dependent empirical distribution functi...
—We consider a scheduling problem in which a bounded number of jobs can be processed simultaneously by a single machine. The input is a set of n jobs J = {J1, . . . , Jn}. Each j...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a general framework for designing fully polynomial time approximation schemes for combinatorial optimization problems, in which more than one ob...
