Deploying and controlling experiments running on a distributed set of resources is a challenging task. Software developers often spend a significant amount of time dealing with the...
Adaptive Time Warp protocols in the literature are usually based on a pre-defined analytic model of the system, expressed as a closed form function that maps system state to cont...
The states of a computing system bear information and change time, while its events bear time and change information. We develop a primitive algebraic model of this duality of tim...
In a Computational Grid which consists of many computer clusters, job start time predictions are useful to guide resource selections and balance the workload distribution. However...
