In Grid systems, nontrivial qualities of service have to be provided to users by the resource providers. However, resource management in a decentralized infrastructure is a complex...
In high energy physics, bioinformatics, and other disciplines, we encounter applications involving numerous, loosely coupled jobs that both access and generate large data sets. So...
Desktop Grids have emerged as an important methodology to harness the idle cycles of millions of participant desktop PCs over the Internet. However, to effectively utilize the res...
