Distributed systems in which users consume and supply different types of services and resources are becoming ever more prevalent. For the matching of consumers and providers, preference-based two-sided matching algorithms can be used to improve the efficiency of the overall match outcome. In such systems, requesting (providing) users rank others based on preferences derived from feedback. Trust can...
In current distributed systems, such as Grids, Clouds, or P2P systems, the amount of information to handle influences the way the system is managed. In P2P systems containing large quantities of data, or in Grid systems containing a large number of (often heterogeneous) resources, information about data or resources must be spread through the system in an efficient way in order to allow them to be...
An architecture based on a decentralized market view integrates grid applications with catallactic middleware. A prototype application showed the concept's feasibility, as well as the middleware's effectiveness in balancing query-request workload across multiple grid services. Grid computing researchers have shown significant interest in using an economic paradigm for exchanging grid resources and...
