Using P2P technology, this novel approach can schedule dynamic grid computing resources efficiently. Grid computing resources in different domains are organized into a structured P2P overlay network. Available resource information is published in type of grid services. Task requests for computational resources are also presented as grid services. Problem of resources scheduling is translated into services discovery. Different from central scheduling approaches that collect available resources information, this Chord-based approach forwards task requests in the overlay network and discovers satisfied resources for these tasks. Using this approach, the computational resources of a grid system can be scheduled dynamically according to the real- time workload on each peer. Furthermore, the application of this approach is introduced into DDG, a grid system for drug discovery and design, to evaluate the performance. Experimental results show that computational resources of a grid system can be managed efficiently, and the system can hold a perfect load balance state and robustness.展开更多

In this semantic peer-to-peer environment, indexing semantic element of resource description to support efficient resource location is a difficult and challenging problem. This paper provided a hybrid indexing architecture, which combines local indexing and global indexing. It uses community strategy and semantic routing strategy to organize key layer metadata element and uses DHT (distributed hash table) to index extensional layer metadata element. Compared with related system, this approach is more efficient in resource location and more scalable.展开更多
