Abstract
With the increasing demand for dynamic and customised resource provisioning for computational experiments in e-Science, solutions are required to mediate different participants’ varied demands for such resource provision. This paper presents a novel negotiation protocol based on a new collaboration model. The protocol allows e-Scientists, the manager of an e-Scientist’s collaboration, and resource providers to reach resource provisioning agreements. By considering the manager of an e-Scientist collaboration for negotiation decisions, the protocol enables fine-grained accountable resource provision on a per job basis for e-Scientist collaborations, without binding the e-Scientist collaboration to resource providers. A testbed built with the protocol is also presented, making use of a production e-Science gateway, use cases, and infrastructures. The testbed is experimentally evaluated, via designed scenarios and comparison with existing production tools. It demonstrates that the proposed negotiation protocol can facilitate accountable resource provision per job, based on resource sharing rules defined and managed by e-Scientist collaborations.
