Self-Configuration of Grid Nodes Using a Policy-Based Management Architecture

چکیده
During the past years, Grid Computing has emerged as an important research field concerning to large-scale resource sharing. Several research and academic institutions have widely adopted this technology as a mechanism able to integrate services across distributed, heterogeneous, and dynamic virtual organizations. However, this rapid expansion is exposing the need to provide effective means to manage virtual organizations, especially those questions related to the insertion and maintenance of grid nodes. This paper proposes a flexible and automated method based on policies to cope with these requirements. Policies constitute a mechanism for specifying the behaviour a grid node must exhibit. In this work we present a policy-based management architecture, which makes use of COPS-PR to exchange information about specific parameters related to grid nodes based on Globus Toolkit 2.4. Moreover, we have also added new classes to the Framework PIB (Policy Information Base) in order to represent configuration data about the different components of this toolkit.

Configuration Management Policy in QoS-Constrained Grid Networks
In Grid service, resource management is important to support capability for good quality and efficiency for the computing and storage service. In order to provide this resource management which has low complexity, high performance and high throughput with guaranteeing QoS, the well defined network resource management architecture and scheme have to be considered. Thus, we propose the integrated...
متن کاملAn Architecture for Autonomic Management of Ambient Networks
This paper proposes an architecture for Ambient Networks (AN) management, which is based on components such as Autonomic Networking and Policy Based Network Management. The main goal is to allow AN management aligned to the network requirements, incorporating functionalities such as self-configuration, self-management, selfhealing and self-protection. In the proposed architecture, all these fun...
متن کاملDistributed Policy Management Protocol for Self-Configuring Mobile Ad Hoe Networks
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are fundamentally different from wired networks. They are autonomously formed with a collection of mobile nodes without any preexisting infrastructure or administrative support. In the last few years, Policy-Based Network Management (PBNM) has gained a considerable interest in order to reach adaptive and automated management goals in MANETs. Previous work in this...
متن کاملGroup-Based Self-organization Grid Architecture
Many grid architectures have been developed since the first protogrid systems in the early 70’s, but there are not so many based on groups using an efficient node neighbor selection. This paper proposes a grid architecture based on groups. The architecture organizes logical connections between nodes from different groups of nodes allowing sharing resources, data or computing time between groups...
متن کاملA Policy-Based Management Framework for Self-managed Wireless Sensor Networks
This paper proposes a policy-based management framework for self-managed wireless sensor networks (WSNs) called SNOWMAN (SeNsOr netWork MANagement). In WSNs, a number of sensor nodes are deployed over a large area and long distances and multi-hop communication is required between nodes. So managing numerous wireless sensor nodes directly is very complex and is not efficient. The management of W...
