Abstract :
This paper presents a file transfer global dynamic scheduling algorithm that incorporates the two optimizations of multi-hop path splitting and multi-pathing in conjunction with the use of available file replicas, This algorithm makes use of information from past GridFTP transfers to estimate network bandwidths and resource availability. The experimental results show that this algorithm achieve significant performance improvement.
