Distributed market broker architecture for resource aggregation in grid computing environments

In order to allow every user to extract aggregated computational power from idle PCs in the Internet, we propose a distributed architecture to achieve a market based resource sharing among users. The advantages of our proposed architecture are the following: (i) aggregated resources can be bought by one order, (ii) resource prices are decided based on market principles, and (iii) the load is balanced among multiple server nodes to make the architecture scalable w.r.t. the number of users. Through simulations, we have confirmed that the proposed method can mitigate the load at each server node to a great extent.
