P2P grid: service oriented framework for distributed resource management

Abstract

With the increasing number of computers on the Internet, there is a growing interest in harnessing the unused and inexpensive computational resources over the Internet. However, current approaches such as the Grid computing paradigm are not sufficient. We present our preliminary work that uses extends Peer-2-Peer (P2P) computing with a framework that allows Grid computing over the internet.

A Regional Matchmaking Technique for Improving Efficiency in Volunteer Computing Environment

“…The method is applied for utilization of the network-connected resources to the stable distributed computing environment such as Grid [4].…”

“…Even in the case of a server collapse it can increase vitality of works and fault tolerance [4]. When, however, redundant works are distributed, new problems occur such that the tasks are continuously redistributed from the server, consequently the task completion delays.…”

Efficient and Lightweight File System for Desktop Grids

“…We are developing RemoteFS as part of a larger project on desktop grid system called FlexGrid [17]. Figure 1 shows a high level overview of the remote file system architecture.…”

“…In this paper, we present a remote file system mechanism called RemoteFS, which we are developing as part of a larger desktop grid computing project [17]. RemoteFS allows programs to query/update remote file systems.…”

“…Even though the program executes on the service provider, it may still need to access (query or update) files from the local system. Such scenarios arise in desktop grid or P2P grid paradigms [17]. • Personal distributed file-system, such as those discussed in UFO [2] and WebFS [1] where programs can access files from remote machines over the Internet, without requiring any expensive exports such as in the case of NFS.…”
