Abstract

In this paper, an economy-based Grid simulator named as EcoGrid is presented. EcoGrid is developed as a test-bed for Grid scheduling algorithms that are based on dynamic load balancing. EcoGrid is dynamically configurable. It optimizes the cost of execution of a process and maximizes the profit of a service provider system. As compared to other commonly used Grid simulation tools like GridSim and SimGrid, this simulator provides more enhanced features like configurable, scalable and extensible. This object oriented simulator also supports execution of Java applications. EcoGrid supports simulation of both the economy based and non-economy based scheduling algorithm.
