Abstract

Administration of Grid resources is a time consuming and often tedious job. Most administrative requests are predictable, and in general, handling them requires knowledge of the local resources and the requester. In this paper we discuss a system to provide automated support for administrative requests, such as resource reservation and user account management. We propose using trust metrics to help judge the merits and suitability of each request. We outline how these metrics can be implemented using trust management techniques into a practical system we call GridAdmin.
