Metaheuristics for Scheduling in Distributed Computing Environments edited by Fatos Xhafa, Ajith Abraham.

Grid computing has emerged as one of the most promising computing paradigms of the new millennium! Achieving high performance Grid computing requires techniques to efficiently and adaptively allocate jobs and applications to available resources in a large scale, highly heterogenous and dynamic envir...
