Abstract

This paper presents an agent-based computational grid (ACG), which applies the concept of computational grid to agents. The ACG system is to implement a uniform higher-level management of the computing resources and services on the Grid, and provide users with a consistent and transparent interface for accessing such services. All entities in the Grid environment including computing resources and services can be represented as agents. Each entity is registered with a grid service manager. Service requestor agent locates a specific grid service by submitting requests to the grid service manager with descriptions of required services. XML is used to describe both grid service descriptions and service requestor agent’s queries. An ACG grid service can be a service agent that provides the actual grid service to the other grid member. In this paper, firstly, the conceptual model about ACG grid is described, and then the design and implementation are given. Finally, some conclusions are given.
