A new resource selection approach based on reputation driven Min-min algorithm in the Grid economy

As Grid is a dynamic environment, the function of reputation is more and more obvious. Reputation systems have been a hot topic in the Peer-to-Peer community for several years. However the researches of it in the Grid are still not perfect, especially in the emerging Grid economy field. In this paper, we propose a reputation calculation model that is suitable in the economic-based Grid computing environment. We also propose a new module, Reputation Control Module (RCM), for the Grid Architecture for Computational Economy (GRACE), and give a detailed introduction of the internal structure of RCM and workflow of different module in GRACE architecture. Additionally, a reputation driven Min-min algorithm was designed based on reputation system in the Grid economy for resource selection. At last we show the performance of the system by simulating experiments.8 page(s
