Performance-Responsive Middleware for Grid Computing

Overview The development of supportive middleware to manage resources and distributed workload across multiple administrative boundaries is of central importance to Grid computing. Active middleware services that perform look-up, match-making, scheduling and staging are being developed that allow users to identify and utilise appropriate resources that provide sustainable system- and user-level qualities of service. This paper documents two performance-responsive middleware services that address the implications of executing a particular workload on a given set of resources. These services are based on an established performance prediction system that is employed at both the local (intra-domain) and global (multi-domain) levels to provide dynamic workload steering.
