Abstract

Grid is already being successfully used in many scientific applications where huge amounts of data have to be processed. The popularity of grid has almost increased exponentially with wide spread adoption of cloud computing. However mobile grid still is in its infancy and considerable research is going towards developing a framework that can reap the full benefits of a mobile grid. One of the biggest challenges impeding growth of mobile grid computing is the lack of techniques to effective manage jobs in a mobile grid. Job management includes identify the right resources, scheduling the job, monitoring the jobs and perform maintenance activities when required. This paper provides a guideline on the techniques that can be used to address the challenges in job management.
