A Joint of Bidding and Ranking Approach for Resource Sharing among Multiple Websites

Modern enterprises typically use websites to provide their network services, and internet users can visit these websites to call the online services, or get the information and data which they need. However, each website may have different workload peaks. At runtime, some Websites may have many workloads and they need borrow resources from other websites which possess some underutilized resources at that time. Thus, designing and implementing an effective resource sharing approach among those multiple websites are important for modern enterprises. This paper implements a bidding-based resource sharing approach, which provides a bidding mechanism to service providers so that it can make them submit their personal prices. We also take the ranking of each Website into account, i.e., the offered-price of each website is given according to its trust ranking. Finally, the simulations are presented to show the efficiency of our mechanism.
