— The efforts to construct a national scale Grid computing environment have brought unprecedented computing capacity and complicacy. Exploiting this complex infrastructure requir...
Abstract. With the increasing popularity of large-scale distributed computing networks, a new aspect has to be considered for scheduling problems: machines may not be available per...
There are many choices to make when evaluating the performance of a complex system. In the context of parallel job scheduling, one must decide what workload to use and what measur...
Parallel machines are typically space shared, or time shared such that only one application executes on a group of nodes at any given time. It is generally assumed that executing ...
Many complex real-time applications involve combined scheduling of hard and soft real-time tasks. In this paper, we propose a combined scheduling algorithm, called Emergency Algori...
