Application-Level and Job-Flow Scheduling: An Approach for Achieving Quality of Service in Distributed Computing

A Kriging Based Forecasting and Scheduling System for Scientific Computing Cloud Applications

“…Based on this purpose, Berman proposes an application-centric scheduling which is used by virtually all meta-computer programmers to achieve performance on meta-computing systems [24]; Li presents a portable middleware layer component designed for implementation over POSIX-compliant operating system for deal with the real-time scheduling [25]; Toporkov develops a combination of job-flow and application-level techniques of scheduling within virtual organizations within a grid computing environment [26]; Zhu introduces a scheduling optimization for a Web server cluster with a master/slave architecture which separates static and dynamic content processing [27]; Aziz investigates a framework for resource allocation and task scheduling, management architecture for resource services (MARS), which efficiently…”

Dependability Problems of Complex Information Systems

“…Such a probabilistic modeling formalism enables a fuzzy logic through the use of "noisy" logic gates, whenever the output is not deterministic, but associated with a certain probability [21].…”

“…Mobile applications are popular among startups and approaches for quick prototyping to evaluate the concept of an application are now in high demand. All of these features contribute to the complexity and specifics of mobile testing [6,21]. As for mobile testing in this work, I mean comprehensive testing of a mobile system that includes the testing of mobile apps as well as mobile operation systems (OS) and the related hardware.…”

“…As for mobile testing in this work, I mean comprehensive testing of a mobile system that includes the testing of mobile apps as well as mobile operation systems (OS) and the related hardware. Different investigations have pointed to the required mobility of the apps in terms of their ability to function in different environments and configurations as the root challenge of testing [21].…”

“…To overcome this problem we propose a functional approach. The system is analyzed from the functional point of view, focusing on business service realized by a system [21]. The analysis is following a classical [15]: modeling and simulation approach.…”
