Abstract

We are developing an agent-team-based Grid resource brokering and management system. One of issues that has to be addressed is team preservation through mirroring of key information. We focused our attention on information generated within the agent team. In this paper we discuss sources of information generated in the system and consider which information should be mirrored to increase long-term survival of the team.
