A Study of Grid Applications: Scheduling Perspective (0711.0316v1)
Published 2 Nov 2007 in cs.DC
Abstract: As the Grid evolves from a high performance cluster middleware to a multipurpose utility computing framework, a good understanding of Grid applications, their statistics and utilisation patterns is required. This study looks at job execution times and resource utilisations in a Grid environment, and their significance in cluster and network dimensioning, local level scheduling and resource management.
