A Resource Discovery and Allocation Mechanism in Large Computational Grids for Media Applications

There has been significant effort to build high throughput computing systems out of many distributed multimedia servers. These systems should accommodate a larger number of servers and should handle the ever-growing user demands. Recently, Grid computing has become one of the promising technologies that can deliver such a system. Among the many problems encountered in building Grid computing systems, resource discovery, overhead reduction, workload balancing and fault tolerance are the most challenging. In this paper, we present a resource discovery and allocation mechanism (RDAM) in a computational Grid system.
