Grid Information Services

Information services play a crucial role in grid computing environments in that the state information of a grid system can be used to facilitate the discovery of resources and services available to meet user requirements and help tune the performance of the grid. This paper models PIndex, which is a grouped peer-to-peer network with Colored Petri Nets (CPNs) for scalable grid information services. Based on the CPN model, a simulator is implemented for PIndex simulation and performance evaluation. The correctness of the simulator is further verified by comparing the results computed from the CPN model with the results generated by the PIndex simulator.

This paper is concerned with the scalability of large-scale grid monitoring and information services, which are mainly used for the discovery of resources of interest. Large-scale grid monitoring systems have to balance between three competing performance metrics: query response time, imposed network overhead, and information freshness. Improving one of the three metrics will affect another; any solution will be based on a trade-off. The paper is motivated by the observation that existing grid monitoring systems can only be manually configured for a trade-off among the three metrics, which applies equally to all monitored resources; this implies that all resources in a grid are considered to be of equal importance. Assuming that in a large-scale grid setting this is unlikely to hold, the paper proposes an importance-based monitoring architecture for large-scale grid information services, based on an adaptation of the web crawling paradigm. The main idea is that, since not all resources are of equal importance, one can vary the trade-off based on the relative importance of the monitored resources. The proposed architecture is described and evaluated based on large-scale deployments of a prototype implementation on PlanetLab.
