Resource Allocation with Supply Adjustment in Distributed Computing Systems

摘要

We present two resource-allocation mechanisms for on-demand computing services in parallel and distributed systems, where users pay for their actual usage of the computational resources. We specialize our solution for allocation of grid resources which is a challenging issue due to the dynamic behavior of the system. The problem is studied from the seller's point of view and adjustment of the market capacity is proposed as his strategic move to maximize his profit from resource sharing.
