Abstract
The emergence of Grid computing has accentuated the need of an adaptable, scalable and extensible resource management system. In this paper we introduce GridARM system which renders the boundaries of resource brokerage, virtual organization wide authorization and advanced reservation, and represents a scalable and adaptive Grid resource management as a middleware infrastructure. The GridARM system provides mechanisms for Grid resource discovery, selection and allocation along with resource requestor and provider interaction. Experiments are presented that demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.
