Planning-based Scheduling for SLA-awareness and Grid Integration∗
نویسندگان
چکیده
Service level agreements (SLAs) are powerful instruments for describing all obligations and expectations in a business relationship. It is of focal importance for deploying Grid technology to commercial applications. The EC-funded project HPC4U (Highly Predictable Clusters for Internet Grids) aimed at introducing SLA-awareness in local resource management systems, while the EC-funded project AssessGrid introduced the notion of risk, which is associated with every business contract. This paper highlights the concept of planning based resource management and describes the SLA-aware scheduler developed and used in these

Multi Objective Scheduling of Utility-scale Energy Storages and Demand Response Programs Portfolio for Grid Integration of Wind Power
Increasing the penetration of variable wind generation in power systems has created some new challenges in the power system operation. In such a situation, the inclusion of flexible resources which have the potential of facilitating wind power integration is necessary. Demand response (DR) programs and emerging utility-scale energy storages (ESs) are known as two powerful flexible tools that ca...
متن کاملA Multi-agent Infrastructure and a Service Level Agreement Negotiation Protocol for Robust Scheduling in Grid Computing
In this paper we propose a new infrastructure for efficient job scheduling on the Grid using multi-agent systems and a Service Level Agreement (SLA) negotiation protocol based on the Contract Net Protocol. The agent-based Grid scheduling system involves user agents, local scheduler agents, and super scheduler agents. User agents submit jobs to Grid compute resources. Local scheduler agents sche...

In this paper we propose a new infrastructure for efficient job scheduling on the Grid using multiagent systems and a market-like Service Level Agreement (SLA) negotiation protocol based on the well known Contract Net Protocol. The agent-based Grid scheduling system involves user agents, local scheduler agents, and super scheduler agents. User agents submit jobs to Grid Compute resources. Local...
متن کاملA Hierarchical Production Planning and Finite Scheduling Framework for Part Families in Flexible Job-shop (with a case study)
Tendency to optimization in last decades has resulted in creating multi-product manufacturing systems. Production planning in such systems is difficult, because optimal production volume that is calculated must be consistent with limitation of production system. Hence, integration has been proposed to decide about these problems concurrently. Main problem in integration is how we can relate pro...
متن کاملA Novel SLA based Task Scheduling in Grid Environment
Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are used in different domains and on different levels to establish agreements on Quality of Service (QoS) between a service provider and a customer. SLAs can be based on general agreements like framework agreements. In a grid environment SLA can be technical agreements which deal with properties of services and resources. Research and development in grid computin...
