Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAgent Based Grid Resource Discovery with Negotiated Alternate Solution and Non-Functional Requirement PreferencesP. Muthuchelvi, G.S. Anandha Mala, V. RamachandranProblem statement: As grid resources are geographically distributed, efficient resource discovery and management has become one of the important requirements. Besides, Grid users are independent identities and negotiation is necessary for reconciling their diverse characteristics. Therefore special mechanism was required to negotiate and discover the required resource or similar resource as an alternative when discovery fails. Moreover the quality of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,504 accessesView PDFCite
