An effective resources organizational structure in the grid environment

In the current distributed network, the grid computing technology has already been an important technology widely used in resource sharing and resource cooperation. Resource sharing usually participates in the grid activities by joining the Virtual Organization (VO) to achieve the cooperation tasks, so the VO is an important technology, which resources can participate into grid events, collaborative tasks. So that grid resource management of virtual organization is an important form of organization. This paper presents a new resources organizational structure, which is divided into two levels. The bottom is consisted of resource nodes come from virtual organization, they participate in the Grid activities by joining the VO. The top is consisted of VO´s head nodes, called virtual overlay network. By using virtual overlay network, it could achieve resource discover orderly and high-efficient. The proposed resource organization structure could provide foundation for grid resource discovery and scheduling.
