An important factor that needs to be taken into account by end-users and systems (schedulers, resource brokers, policy brokers) when mapping applications to the Grid, is the perfo...
In this paper, we present algorithms for Grid resource provisioning that employ agreement-based resource management. These algorithms allow userlevel resource allocation and sched...
— We consider wireless multihop data networks with random multi-access mechanisms at the MAC layer. Our aim is to study the performance as perceived by users in a dynamic setting...
ALPS is a per-application user-level proportional-share scheduler that operates with low overhead and without any special kernel support. ALPS is useful to a range of applications...
