Evolutionary Hierarchical Multi-Criteria Metaheuristics for Scheduling in Large-Scale Grid Systems
One of the most challenging issues in modelling today's large-scale computational systems is to effectively manage highly parametrised distributed environments such as computational grids, clouds, ad hoc networks and P2P networks. Next-generation computat

Foreword
Emerging paradigms for the development and deployment of massively distributed computational systems allow resources to span diverse locations, organizations, and platforms connected through wide area networks. In such systems, both service provision and services may arrive, be organized, and dissipated, as computational capabilities are formulated and reformulated without reference to any central authority or any coordinator. The term Grid was coined in the mid-1990s in reference to technologies that would allow consumers to utilize computing power on demand. Ian Foster, in his pioneering work on grid computing, posited that a simple grid environment may be
