Most cluster systems used in high performance computing do not allow process relocation at run-time. Finding an allocation that results in minimal completion time is NP-hard and (n...
We consider the problem of scheduling n independent jobs on m identical machines that operate in parallel. Each job has a controllable processing time. The fact that the jobs have...
Abstract We present the General Game Playing system Centurio. Centurio is a Java-based player featuring different strategies based on Monte Carlo Tree Search extended by technique...
Fast remote procedure call (RPC) is a major concern for distributed systems. Many studies aimed at efficient RPC consist of either new implementations of the RPC paradigm or manua...
The performance of the Global Array shared-memory nonuniform memory-access programming model is explored on the I-WAY, wide-area-network distributed supercomputer environment. The...
