Performance Modeling and Analysis of Workflow
- Systems, Man and Cybernetics, Part A, IEEE Transactions on
, 2004
"... Abstract—Workflow model analysis is performed at logic, temporal, and performance levels. This paper mainly deals with the performance level issues. Workflow net (WF-net) is extended with time information to the timing workflow net (TWF-net). To provide a formal framework for modeling and analyzing ..."

, resource availability and workload analysis is performed. A method for computing the lower bound of average turnaround time of transaction instances processed in a MWF-net is proposed. Finally a case study is used to show that the proposed method can be effectively utilized in practice. Index Terms
Whom You Know Matters: Venture Capital Networks and Investment Performance,
- Journal of Finance
, 2007
"... Abstract Many financial markets are characterized by strong relationships and networks, rather than arm's-length, spot-market transactions. We examine the performance consequences of this organizational choice in the context of relationships established when VCs syndicate portfolio company inv ..."

A Framework for the Design and Reuse of Grid WorkFlows
- International Workshop on Scientific Aspects of Grid Computing
, 2005
"... Grid workflows can be seen as special scientific workflows involving high performance and/or high throughput computational tasks. Much work in grid workflows has focused on improving application performance through schedulers that optimize the use of computational resources and bandwidth. As hig ..."

. As high-end computing resources are becoming more of a commodity that is available to new scientific communities, there is an increasing need to also improve the design and reusability "performance" of scientific workflow systems.
A review on buildings energy consumption information,”
- Energy and Buildings,
, 2008
"... Abstract The rapidly growing world energy use has already raised concerns over supply difficulties, exhaustion of energy resources and heavy environmental impacts (ozone layer depletion, global warming, climate change, etc.). The global contribution from buildings towards energy consumption, both r ..."

Delaunay Triangulation with Transactions and Barriers
- IEEE Intl. Symp. on Workload Characterization
, 2007
"... Transactional memory has been widely hailed as a simpler alternative to locks in multithreaded programs, but few nontrivial transactional programs are currently available. We describe an open-source implementation of Delaunay triangulation that uses transactions as one component of a larger parallel ..."

of transactional and partitioned work to stitch those regions together. Experiments on multiprocessor and multicore machines confirm excellent single-thread performance and good speedup with increasing thread count. Since execution time is dominated by geometrically partitioned computation, performance is largely
Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems
"... (MMOGs) can include millions of concurrent players spread across the world and interacting with each other within a single session. Faced with high resource demand variability and with misfit resource renting policies, the current industry practice is to over-provision for each game tens of self-own ..."

Experiment and Workflow Management Using
"... Abstract—In recent years the power of Grid computing has grown exponentially through the development of advanced mid-dleware systems. While usage has increased, the penetration of Grid computing in the scientific community has been less than expected by some. This is due to a steep learning curve an ..."

Through a service integration mechanism, the shell’s functionality is exposed to a wide variety of frameworks and programming languages. Cyberaide Shell includes specialized experiment management and workflow commands
A transaction model for mobile computing
, 1998
"... In this paper, we introduce a prewrite operation before a write operation in a mobile transaction to improve data availability. A prewrite operation does not update the state of a data object but only makes visible the value that the data object will have after the commit of the transaction. Once th ..."

values are made visible both at mobile and stationary hosts before the final commit of the transaction. This increases data availability during frequent disconnection common in mobile computing. Since the expensive part of the transaction execution is shifted to the stationary host, it reduces
