Abstract: | A decentralized Grid resource discovery solution is presented in this paper under predefined resource taxonomy, in which information nodes with the same type of registered resources are organized together to form resource information communities (RIC), and efficient navigation between different communities is achieved by a DHT P2P based bootstrap network. Periodical topology maintenance communications are used to piggyback and disseminate popular data in bootstrap network to achieve better load balance. The performance of RIC-based Grid resource discovery is evaluated by simulation under different cases, and overhead is also studied. |
