“…If there is no local worker available, S n broadcasts a query message to request task migration to foreign zones. This approach is a simplified model used in [14] and [28]. It is one of the search-based resource discovery strategies with overhead control in super-peer overlays.…”

In this paper, we explore the problem of scheduling multiple concurrent Bag-of-Tasks (BoT) applications in unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) volunteer desktop grids built around a super-peer framework. Resource availability information is exchanged among the super-peers using a light-weight thresholddriven gossip protocol with the aim of minimizing the resource discovery overhead. We present a comprehensive study of the properties of fixed threshold and adaptive threshold based gossiping mechanisms using detailed simulation experiments.Our results indicate that while gossiping with fixed threshold reflects resource usage effectively in a scalable network, an adaptive gossip threshold mechanism based on a simple feedback mechanism considering system state adapts much better to a volatile environment with small latency, reduced overhead and yields better system performance compared to fixed threshold protocols.

In this paper, we explore resource discovery and scheduling issues that arise in unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) desktop grids. We examine the use of a super-peer based approach to address these issues. The super-peers form a resource information tracking and exchange overlay to enable users to rapidly locate resources for remote execution of jobs. Resource availability information is exchanged among the super-peers using a light-weight threshold-driven gossip protocol with the aim of minimizing the resource discovery overhead. We conduct detailed simulation experiments to illustrate the comparative results. Our results indicate that this approach offers a lightweight and scalable method for managing resources in a desktop grid.
