Distributed operating system for resource discovery and allocation in federated clusters
Pages 1 - 2
Abstract
Nowadays, numerical simulation has an important place in several scientific fields where real experimentation is expensive or impossible. Important computing resources must be used to realize these experimentations and workstations are not suitable to satisfy these requirements. After having aggregated computers in clusters or in federated clusters (or grid), a challenge for laboratories or large companies is to efficiently and easily use this large amount of resources. Several projects like PBS [Bode00] or Kerrighed [Morin04] offer solutions for cluster resources management. Other projects like Condor [Litzkow88], Globus [Foster97] or NetSolve [Agrawal03] focus on federated clusters or grid computing.

Recommendations
Distributed resource allocation in federated clouds
Cloud computing is an emerging technology which relies on virtualization techniques to achieve the elasticity of shared resources for providing on-demand services. When the service demand increases, more resources are required to satisfy the service ...
Distributed Grid Resource Discovery with Matchmakers
SKG '06: Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Semantics, Knowledge, and GridThe Grid provides mechanisms to share dynamic, heterogeneous, distributed resources spanned across multiple administrative domains. Resources required to execute a job are identified from the resource pool based on the desired set of attributes of the ...
Parallel resource co-allocation for the computational grid
Resource co-allocation is one of the crucial problems affecting the utility of the grid. Because the numbers of the application tasks and amounts of required resources are enormous and quick responses to the requirements of users are necessary in the ...
