Abstract
Risk assessment in Grids aims to improve the confidence level between the Resource Provider and End User to agree to a Service Level Agreement [SLA]. Risk assessment in Grids complements SLAs, which provide some improvement over the best effort approach. The existing efforts in risk assessment in Grids are at the granularity level of nodes or machines. We introduce Risk assessment aggregation at the node level based on R-out-of -N model. The experimental results show that R-out-of –N model provides more detailed options regarding the Risk value for selected R nodes against a total of N nodes.
