introduction: human resources information management as one of the valuable and modern achievement is the biggest challenge that managers are faced with and there is a deep believe on application and practical execution of modern managerial approaches in human resource area such as european foundation for quality management (efqm) model can cause performance improvement and organizational effic...

This paper presents the case for a run-time operating system to provide predictable and controllable resource management for parallel applications. Developments in compilers for parallel applications, which depend on analysis of program behaviour, require corresponding developments in predictable and controllable operating systemlevel resource management. A customisable system, Arena, is descri...

The ISO 14000 and ISO 9000 standards have a positive impact on achieving sustainable and efficient business. The ISO 14001, in particular, is credited with a crucial role of assisting businesses with managing their environmental credentials which are vital in the upcoming carbon economy. This paper explores the significance of ISO 14001 and expands on the possibilities of the use of this standa...

Growing load and deterioration of the environment can be interpreted as a result of some external effects interventions. While the positive externalities influence the positive productional and utilizational functions of other subjects, the negative externalities influence the negative ones. Both types of external effects can act as parcial or global externalities. Linking of environmental issu...

In grid environment, users look for a suitable resource capable of executing a given task. Resource brokers / schedulers are intermediaries, who provide service to the grid users. In the existing resource brokers / schedulers, when the exact match for the requested resource is not available, resource discovery have to be terminated unsuccessfully or the process should wait in the queue till the...

As the Internet began its exponential growth into a global information environment, software was often unreliable, slow and had dif£culty in interoperating with other systems. Supercomputing node counts also continue to follow high growth trends. Supercomputer and grid resource management software must mature into a reliable computational platform in much the same way that web services matured ...

Recent technological developments, including gigabit networking technology and low-cost, high-performance microprocessors, have given rise to metacomputing environments. Metacomputing environments combine hosts from multiple administrative domains via transnational and worldwide networks. Managing the resources in such a system is a complex task, but is necessary to eeciently and economically e...

The emergence of Grid computing has accentuated the need of an adaptable, scalable and extensible resource management system. In this paper we introduce GridARM system which renders the boundaries of resource brokerage, virtual organization wide authorization and advanced reservation, and represents a scalable and adaptive Grid resource management as a middleware infrastructure. The GridARM sys...

This paper describes the design and implementation of a large SAS production billing system developed at Hewlett-Packard's Corporate Data Center. The design considerations for implementing such a large system in SAS will be discussed along with advantages of implementing this system in SAS, such as: quick prototyping and implementation, ease of use, adaptability, efficiency and the additional f...
