Thanks to advances in wide-area network technologies and the low cost of computing
resources, Grid computing came into being and is currently an active research area. One …

Cloud computing environments facilitate applications by providing virtualized resources that
can be provisioned dynamically. However, users are charged on a pay-per-use basis. User …

The growth of energy consumption has been explosive in current data centers, super
computers, and public cloud systems. This explosion has led to greater advocacy of green …

This paper describes the Pegasus framework that can be used to map complex scientific
workflows onto distributed resources. Pegasus enables users to represent the workflows at …

During the recent years, workflows have emerged as an important abstraction for
collaborative research and managing complex large-scale distributed data analytics …

With the advent of Grid and application technologies, scientists and engineers are building
more and more complex applications to manage and process large data sets, and execute …

This collection of articles on 'Work? ows for e-Science'is very timely and-portant.
Increasingly, to attack the next generation of scienti? c problems, multidisciplinary and …

With the advent of Grid and application technologies, scientists and engineers are building

In this paper we describe the Pegasus system that can map complex workflows onto the
Grid. Pegasus takes an abstract description of a workflow and finds the appropriate data and …

In this paper we survey computational models for Grid scheduling problems and their
resolution using heuristic and meta-heuristic approaches. Scheduling problems are at the …
