In past massively parallel processing systems, such as the TMC CM-5 and the CRI T3E, the scheduling problem consisted of allocating a single type of resource among the waiting job...
—Large scale production grids are a major case for autonomic computing. Following the classical definition of Kephart, an autonomic computing system should optimize its own beha...
In systems consisting of multiple clusters of processors which are interconnected by relatively slow communication links and which employ space sharing for scheduling jobs, such a...
The TeraGrid is a closely linked community of diverse resources: computational, data, and experimental, e.g., the imminent very large computational system at the University of Tex...

Abstract. In this paper, we analyze the problem of grid resource brokering in the presence of economic information about the price of resources. We examine in detail the main tasks...
