Resource allocation in network of workstations (NOW)

With the emergence of fast network switches, high bandwidth network, and the decreasing cost of workstations, a Network of Workstations (NOW) is becoming a viable alternative to Massively Parallel Processors (MPP) system for the execution of parallel real-time tasks. A Network of Workstations, which...
