Information services are one of the most important requirements of the grid system. They include Discovery and Monitoring of the resources. The discovery is the process of finding the computational resource/service. The Monitoring detects and diagnoses problems. Both require the information collection about the resources from the complete grid environment. This paper intends to explore some mechanisms of resource discovery, which are quite important within the Grid Environments. That is, the resource discovery should find out the preferred resources quickly and assign them in a timely manner to the requesting terminal. An in-depth review and analysis study is carried out about the previous work related to resource discovery.
