Voluntary Computing systems or Desktop Grids (DGs) enable sharing of commodity computing resources across the globe and have gained tremendous popularity among scientific research...
Simulation and optimization of complex mechanical and electronical systems is a very time consuming and computationally intensive task. Therefore, metamodeling techniques are ofte...
