Knowledge and Developing New Information Technologies

  • by Jacob Bensimon

One important dimension of human behavior is the capability to plan and engage in tactics such as learning a new activity or attempting to beat your personal best. It may be a less obvious dimension, but it’s just as important: the ability to save up knowledge over the years to be able to tackle a challenge, such as learning to play the piano, or navigating a new country.

Alternatively, we may categorize Computational Grids or Data Grids according to their focus on provision of computing cycles or data solutions. They also occasionally are grouped according to the user community they address, such as Health Grids, Earth Observation Grids, Finance Grids.

Optimisation of Resource Selection

  • by Jacob Bensimon

The optimization component offers a service to the Grid users aiming at optimizing the scheduling of the jobs in the environment. In particular, the Optim provides a service that can be used by the Scheduler to improve quality of resource allocation. The component receives from the scheduler one or more jobs to be scheduled and it returns, for each job, an ordered list of available computing resources of the grid on which the job can be carried out respecting SLA’s constraints.

The Negotiation Common Capability relates to the procedure of parties (consumer and providers) agreeing on the terms of an SLA governing the exchange of resources. The parties try to reach a deal based on a consensus after exchanging (possibly several) non-binding probes called quotes hereafter.
