In the existing studies on fault-tolerant scheduling, the active replication schema makes use
of e+ 1 replicas for each task to tolerate E failures. However, in this paper, we show that it …

This monograph summarizes the authors' works in the the first decade of the 21st century on
possibility distributions and decisions. The book is organized as follows. It begins, in …

In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of two mechanisms for fault-
tolerance and recovery for complex scientific workflows on computational grids. We present …

Using the cloud computing paradigm, a host of companies promise to make huge compute
resources available to users on a pay-as-you-go basis. These resources can be configured …

Large supercomputers are built today using thousands of commodity components, and
suffer from poor reliability due to frequent component failures. The characteristics of failure …

Complex scientific workflows are now Increasingly executed on computational grids. In
addition to the challenges of managing and scheduling these workflows, reliability …

As the computational power of high‐performance computing systems continues to increase
by using a huge number of cores or specialized processing units, high‐performance …

Today, GPUs are widely used as coprocessors/accelerators in High-Performance
Heterogeneous Computing due to their many advantages. However, many researches …

Effective failure prediction and mitigation strategies in high-performance computing systems
could provide huge gains in resilience of tightly coupled large-scale scientific codes. These …

Large-scale applications rely on resilience mechanisms such as checkpoint-restart to make
forward progress in the presence of failures. Unfortunately, this incurs huge I/O overhead …
