Description
Summary:Grid technology allows organizations to utilize numerous computers to solve problems by sharing computing resources. At its current stage, grid computing is still not broadly accessible to non-computing users and continues to be user unfriendly. A normal user spends too much time on procedures for accessing a resource and too little time on using the resource itself. So abstraction of various Grid capabilities is needed. In this paper we have presented a virtualized infrastructure which eliminates the concept of job-submission, and supplies the computing power invisibly. It includes a personal agent mediated resource trading system. A working prototype of one part of this project is ready and has been demonstrated here.
