Abstract

Advance Reservation for global grids becomes an important research area as it allows users to gain concurrent access for their applications to be executed in parallel, and guarantees the availability of resources at specified future times. In this paper, we propose a market-based framework for advance resource reservation through iterative combinatorial auction, and we also introduce three variant price updating methods and compare the revenue of the service providers, the duration of the auction, and the satisfaction of the users when all users use best-response bidding strategy.
