The ability to reserve network bandwidth is critical for the success of high-performance grid applications. While reservation of lightpaths in dynamically switched optical network...
The centralised management of distributed computing infrastructures presents a number of considerable challenges, not least of which is the effective monitoring of physical resour...
Efficient resource discovery based on dynamic attributes such as CPU utilization and available bandwidth is a crucial problem in the deployment of computing grids. Existing solut...
The global internet is rich in commodity resources but scarce in specialized resources. We argue that a grid framework can achieve better performance if it separates the management...
In this paper we propose a novel framework for the dynamic allocation of jobs in grid-like environments, in which such jobs are dispatched to the machines of the grid by a centrali...
