网格资源管理中的经济学原理运用

网格的目标是实现对地理上广泛分布的大量异构资源进行共享。由于网格具有的异构性、分布性和动态性,传统的资源管理方法在网格环境中并不适用。此外,要吸引各类资源消费者和提供者加入网格,就必须满足他们各自的需求。将经济学原理,例如边际效用、Nash均衡等引入网格资源管理之中,能够很好地解决以上问题。该文简略地列举了近10年来在分布式系统上使用经济学模型进行资源分配的相关研究,并且对目前开展得比较好的几个网格经济学研究项目进行了分析。

Economic Principles in Grid Resource Management

The goal of Grid is to realize share of homogeneous resources that locate all over the world.Because the Grid is homog eneous,distributed and dynamic,traditional methods of resource management wil l not function well in Grid environment.Moreover,in order to attract resource consumers and providers to attend the Grid,their needs must be meet.All these problems can be solved by using economic principles,such as marginal efficienc y and Nash-Equilibrium,in the management of resources in the Grid.This artic le lists relative research of last10years about using economic models in dist ributed systems ,and analyses several projects of Grid Economy.
