Quality of Service on the Grid Via Metascheduling with Resource Co-Scheduling and Co-Reservation

Abstract

Assuring predictable resources (processors, memory, storage) for applications running on the Grid is a critical factor for the success of the Grid for solving real-life problems. We extend the Globus Resource Management Architecture to provide metascheduling, co-scheduling and advance co-reservation of resources, and compare the proposed architecture with existing metascheduling solutions.
