We study the problem of efficiently allocating incoming independent tasks onto the resources of a Grid system. Typically, it is assumed that the estimated time to compute each task...
The availability of large quantities of processors is a crucial enabler of many-task computing. Voluntary computing systems have proven that it is possible to build computing plat...

There is an increasing trends towards distributed and shared repositories for storing scientific datasets. Developing applications that retrieve and process data from such reposit...
Caching techniques have been used to improve the performance gap of storage hierarchies in computing systems. In data intensive applications that access large data files over wid...
This paper describes the development of an in silico virtual screening application on Taiwan Unigrid. In silico virtual screening is one of the most promising approach to accelerat...
