To solve the complex issue of multi-resource transaction in grid environment, based on the economic theory,a multi-resource parallel transaction model is proposed. Then its formal description and the key concepts are given. For the purpose of optimization allocation of buyerpsila s credit on multi-resource, the strategy and a mathematical solution are presented. Finally, service encapsulation of messages...
A theoretical account aimed at modeling time usage founded on social network-based multiagent system is proposed. The model introduces mutual, dynamic relationships between the network and schedules: on the one hand, a network is generated by schedules, on the other, schedules are shaped by the network. Time allocation is driven by globally distributed semantic resources. Social network structure...
We present a practical, market-based solution to the resource provisioning problem in a set of heterogeneous resource clusters. We focus on provisioning rather than immediate scheduling decisions to allow users to change long-term job specifications based on market feedback. Users enter bids to purchase quotas, or bundles of resources for long-term use. These requests are mapped into a simulated clock...
The status quo of enterprises' load imbalance in most clusters makes the economical function of the clusters far under the level which them should have. In order to improve the function, it is necessary to carry out working procedures, parts, components and products' order allocation in clusters. At present, there is no an effective and mature method of order allocation for enterprises in a cluster,...
Capability Theory discusses the root of enterprise competitive advantage from the perspective of enterprise's endogenous resource and capability. However, it doesn't pay more attention to entrepreneur's contribution to enterprise's growth and the relationship between entrepreneur and organizational capability. This paper includes entrepreneur's capability into Capability Theory Model. It points out...
The full-scaled transformation of staff relationship from the employing model to the cooperative model is one of the tendencies of human resources management in the 21st century. Cooperative staff relationship is fundamental to the existence and development of enterprises in the era of knowledge and economy. However, in China, many enterprises are still running in the employing model of staff relationship...
With the fast growth of grid service demands, an efficient resource management mechanism is required. Business-oriented algorithms were shown to be adequate to resolve such a problem. Business models mainly consider the problem of computing, storage and network resources virtualization. This paper investigates the problem of resource allocation under flexible traffic in market-oriented grids. We consider...
The location of a bank has a direct effect on saving behavior of residents. Study on the relations between the allocation of the deposit and the locations of the banks have an urgent meaning. To this end, fuzzy mathematics is used. The allocation of resident savings in each bank is expressed as a fuzzy subset, and each bank is given a attractor, which denotes the capability of capturing deposit within...
As the key character of grid is the good service quality, the study of QoS (quality of services) becomes more and more important. And SLA (service level agreement) can really guarantee the QoS. Although SLA has been a topic in the field of telecom for many years, the researches of it in the grid are still not perfect, especially in the emerging grid economy field. In this paper, we propose a SLA control...
In economic resource management systems, the objective is to bring about an efficient allocation of resource while allowing market participants, resource consumers and owners, to act on their individual valuations of jobs and resources. In this paper we investigate the pricing of resources in dynamic grids. Particularly, we investigate grid resource management based on a computational commodity market...
This paper presents the findings of a research effort to create an agent based economy where investors collect information and simultaneously make decisions about how much of their wealth they are each willing to risk. As an extension of the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), the investors must choose how much of their wealth to allocate between a risk-free asset and the risky asset. The price of...
Pricing content-providers for connectivity to end- users and setting connection parameters based on the price is an evolving model on the Internet. The implications are heavily debated in telecom policy circles, and some advocates of "Network Neutrality" have opposed price based differentiation in connectivity. However, pricing content providers can possibly subsidize the end-user's cost...
Grid technologies enable large-scale sharing of resources within formal or informal consortia of individuals and/or institutions, usually called virtual organizations.In these settings, the discovery, characterization, management, and monitoring of resources, services, and computations can be challenging due to the considerable diversity, large numbers, dynamic behavior, and geographical distribution...
We present a flexible query allocation framework, called satisfaction-based query allocation (SbQA for short), for distributed information systems where both consumers and providers (the participants) have special interests towards queries. A particularity of SbQA is that it allocates queries while considering both query load and participants' interests. To be fair, it dynamically trades consumers'...
In this paper, we propose a resource management model that extends the contract net protocol by integrating the advantages of the matchmaking technique. Our model addresses the issues of matchmaker overload and the lack of up-to-date resource state information suffered by the original matchmaking model. It also enables resource requesters to obtain a list of qualified resources with which they can...
In this paper, we propose a new variant of latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA): Collective LDA (C-LDA), for multiple corpora modeling. C-LDA combines multiple corpora during learning such that it can transfer knowledge from one corpus to another; meanwhile it keeps a discriminative node which represents the corpus ID to constrain the learned topics in each corpus. Compared with LDA locally applied to...
Grid economy models have long been considered as a promising alternative for the classical Grid resource management, due to their dynamic and decentralized nature, and because the financial valuation of resources and services is inherent in any such model. In particular, auction models are widely used in the existing Grid research, as they are easy to implement and are shown to successfully manage...
This study's objective is to solve mining knowledge issue from different sources of distributed, formatted or unformatted data with diverse data semantics. The issue is formulated as data mining in knowledge grid. In particular, this paper presented a DM-GRID (data mining in grid) model based on software architecture of a novel infrastructure for distributed and high-performance data mining in knowledge...
The paper discusses about the precise location prediction algorithms using improved random walk-based and generalized Markovian mobility models. This algorithm is used in mobile and cellular network dimensioning, dynamic resource allocation in cells, justifying CAC decisions and QoS parameter tuning, predicting user distribution and motion drifts in network, and estimating number of users in current...
While grid market schedulers have recently received a lot of attention and have been accepted not only in economic but also in purely computer science areas as well, technical grid schedulers are being modified to support advance reservation of resources, too. This prompts questions on how to model grid markets and how to handle grid resource reservation in a reasonable economic fashion. This paper...
