Abstract

As grid infrastructures become more dynamic in order to cope with the uncertainty of demand, they are becoming extremely difficult to manage. At the Belfast e-Science Centre, we are attempting to address this issue by developing Self Managing Grid Middleware. This paper gives an overview of the middleware and focuses on the design, implementation and evaluation of a Resource Manager. Also in this paper we will see how our approach, which is based on federated UDDI registries, has enabled us to implement some of the desired features of next generation grid software.
