Selection of resources for execution of scientific workflows in data grids becomes challenging with the exponential growth of files as a result of the distribution of scientific e...
This article focuses on algorithms for fast computation of the Euclidean distance between a query point and a subdivision surface. The analyzed algorithms include uniform tessella...
—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...
This paper discusses some issues related to the planning of a series of grid experiments in the context of the TrebleCLEF project with the aim of improving the comprehension of Mul...
The heterogeneous and dynamic nature of Grid environments place new demands on models and paradigms for parallel programming. In this work we discuss how ALua, a programming syste...
