MoGiNMA: a negotiation framework for autonomous grid node monitoring agent

Writing monitoring and management applications for grid resources is a complex undertaking. This is clue to the geographic distribution of resources and heterogeneous environments that are owned by different organizations. In order to address complex resource monitoring and management issues we have proposed a negotiation framework for autonomous grid node monitoring agent, which is based on multi-agent systems (MAS). We have used FIPA-ACL for communicating between agents. Currently the grid monitoring and management implementation describe behaviors for a certain grid environment, which is not feasible for dynamic, flexible and complex grid systems. We introduced the concept of negotiation into software agents design for grid monitoring, management, problem identification and coordinated removal. Our proposed architecture is based on MAS so if provides all these functionalities. We are carrying out the implementation of the proposed system. The overall concept can lead toward autonomous resource management in dynamic systems like grid.
