Resource management systems are central to distributed network computing, and many projects have implemented diverse architectures and services. This paper develops an abstract model and a comprehensive taxonomy for describing resource management architectures. The authors construct the taxonomy and apply it to survey large‑scale grid systems, using the results to map existing architectural approaches. The survey reveals architectural approaches and gaps that remain underexplored in current grid resource management research. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Abstract The resource management system is the central component of distributed network computing systems. There have been many projects focused on network computing that have designed and implemented resource management systems with a variety of architectures and services. In this paper, an abstract model and a comprehensive taxonomy for describing resource management architectures is developed. The taxonomy is used to identify approaches followed in the implementation of existing resource management systems for very large‐scale network computing systems known as Grids. The taxonomy and the survey results are used to identify architectural approaches and issues that have not been fully explored in the research. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
