Abstract
As the information technology rapidly expands (regardless of the technology area) collaboration, information sharing and distributed computing become inevitable phenomena (i.e. e-commerce, e-health, e-science etc.) [1]. Since the complexity is a driving force behind the enhancements, new network-centric infrastructures and solutions are proposed to address the problem. Grid is an example solution that handles the situation in a cost-effective and efficient manner. There are available grid based infrastructures to solve scientific (or other) type of applications which need harmony among distributed hardware, software resources and human users. To achieve better usage of resources in a secure and intelligent way, scalable, reliable, and dynamic infrastructures are current requirements. Based on the current trends, we propose a secure, dynamic, and intelligent resource management and access method employing mobile agents along with the grid infrastructure.
