We study stochastic models to mitigate the risk of poor Quality-of-Service (QoS) in computational markets. Consumers who purchase services expect both price and performance guaran...
Grid Workflows are emerging as practical programming models for solving large e-scientific problems on the Grid. However, it is typically assumed that the workflow components eith...
Abstract. Nowadays enterprises request information technologies that leverage structured and unstructured information for providing a single integrated view of business problems in...
Traditionally, instruction-set simulators (ISS’s) are sequential programs running on individual processors. Besides the advances of simulation techniques, ISS’s have been main...
Cycle-harvesting systems such as Condor have been developed to make desktop machines in a local area (which are often similar to clusters in hardware configuration) available as ...
