In this paper, we present algorithms for Grid resource provisioning that employ agreement-based resource management. These algorithms allow userlevel resource allocation and sched...
In this paper we consider, compare and analyze three game theoretical Grid resource allocation mechanisms. Namely, 1) the non-cooperative sealed-bid method where tasks are auction...
In this paper, we introduce the combinatorial auction model for resource management in grids. We propose a combinatorial auction-based resource allocation protocol in which a user...
Emerging large scale utility computing systems like Grids promise computing and storage to be provided to end users as a utility. System management services deployed in the middle...
Parallel application development for Grids can from tools that abstract the underlying Grid middleware, hide the critical aspects of heterogeneous resources and provide utilities ...
