[EN] Bag-of-Tasks (BoT) workflows are widespread in many big data analysis fields. However, there are very few cloud resource provisioning and scheduling algorithms tailored for BoT workflows. Furthermore, existing algorithms ...

This book is aimed at covering the bases on random variables, random vectors and stochastic processes, necessary to be able to address the study of stochastic models based mainly on random and stochastic differential ...

[ES] La computación con membranas es un modelo de computación que se inspira en el funcionamiento de una célula eucariota animal. El modelo de sistemas P de transición propuesto por Gheorghe P ˘aun y los diferentes tipos ...

[EN] Statistical mechanics is a physics theory that deals with ensembles of microstates of a system compatible with environmental constraints and that on average define a thermodynamic state. The evolution of a small system ...

[EN] We consider a special workflow scheduling problem in a hybrid-cloud-based workflow management system in which tasks are linearly dependent, compute-intensive, stochastic, deadline-constrained and executed on elastic ...

[EN] An integral application of the enabling technologies of Industry 4.0 in the job-shop scheduling problem (JSSP) must contemplate the automation and autonomy of the involved decision-making processes as a goal, which ...
