Abstract :
This paper specifies an advance reservation and co-allocation protocol for grid computing, and a simple framework for supporting well defined charging models. The protocol supports arbitrary level of nesting, that is a reservation may be to a virtual resource (a set of resources). The work is motivated by the need for advance reservation in the RealityGrid project. However the protocol is a generic protocol that can reserve any type of resource (e.g. clusters, network, and storage) and for any grid project where users need to reserve one or more resources in advance
