Abstract

Many grid architectures have been developed since the first proto-grid systems in the early 70's, but there are not so many based on groups using an efficient node neighbor selection. This paper proposes a grid architecture based on groups. The architecture organizes logical connections between nodes from different groups of nodes allowing sharing resources, data or computing time between groups. Connections are used to find and share available resources from other groups and they are established based on node's available capacity. Suitable nodes have higher roles in the architecture and their function is to organize connections based on a node selection process. Nodes' logical connections topology changes depending on some dynamic parameters. The architecture is scalable and fault-tolerant. We describe the protocol, its management and real measurements. It could be used as an intergrid protocol.
