Dynamic load balancing(DLB) for parallel systems has been studied extensively; however, DLB for distributed systems is relatively new. To efficiently utilize computing resources p...
Global Computing achieves high throughput computing by harvesting a very large number of unused computing resources connected to the Internet. This parallel computing model target...
Monitoring and information services form a key component of a distributed system, or Grid. A quantitative study of such services can aid in understanding the performance limitatio...
