The advent of service-oriented Grid computing has resulted in the need for Grid resources such as clusters to enforce user-specific service needs and expectations. Service Level ...
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 ...
An important requirement for the effective scheduling of parallel applications on large heterogeneous clusters is a current view of system resource availability. Maintaining such ...
The availability of inexpensive “off the shelf” machines increases the likelihood that parallel programs run on heterogeneous clusters of machines. These programs are increasi...
This paper presents new mechanisms for dynamic resource management in a cluster manager called Clusteron-Demand (COD). COD allocates servers from a common pool to multiple virtual...
