NodeWiz: peer-to-peer resource discovery for grids
Sujoy Basu, Sujata Banerjee, Puneet Kumar Sharma, Sung-Ju Lee · 2005
Efficient resource discovery based on dynamic attributes such as CPU utilization and available bandwidth is a crucial problem in the deployment of computing grids. Existing solutions are either centralized or unable to answer advanced resource queries (e.g., range queries) efficiently. We present the design of NodeWiz, a grid information service (CIS) that allows multi-attribute range queries to be performed efficiently in a distributed manner. This is obtained by aggregating the directory services of individual organizations in a peer-to-peer information service.
