Abstract— Emergent wide-area distributed systems like computational grids present opportunities for large scientific applications. On these systems, communication mechanisms hav...
Abstract— We propose a method for wide-area message passing systems to perform collective operations using dynamically created spanning trees. In our proposal, broadcasts and red...
In e-Science experiments, it is vital to record the experimental process for later use such as in interpreting results, verifying that the correct process took place or tracing whe...

Abstract— In order to efficiently use Grid resources, users or middlewares must use some network information, and in particular some knowledge of the platform network. As such kn...
In traditional job scheduling systems for the Grid, a single or a few machines handle information of all computing resources and scheduling tasks. This centralized approach is not...
