Distributed applications or workflows need to access and use compute, storage and network resources simultaneously or chronologically coordinated respectively. Examples are distri...
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...
