Abstract
In a distributed multi-institute environment like the GRID, each participating institute may want to enforce some limits on how its resources are being used by other institutes. We discuss how the concept of resource allocation policies can assist in this task. We then present an architecture for policy based resource management in the case of a single institute, and how a policy server based on GRID concepts can be developed. We then show how to extend the policy server to support virtual organizations.
