A Multi-agent Approach for P2P Based Resource Discovery in Grids
Yunsong Tan · 2009
Grids are likely to be the mainstay of distributed computing. Efficient Resource discovery mechanism is one of the fundamental requirement for Grid computing systems. Peer-to-peer organization of Grid resource discovery services would have several desirable features, including high scalability, high reliability, self-organization and self-healing, we propose a multi-agent based peer-to-peer approach for resource discovery in grids which allows for an efficient search of resources by maximizing the benefit of the replication mechanism and facilitate the discovery operations. A simulation analysis has been performed to evaluate the performance of the approach.
