Reliability and Availability Improvement in Economic Data Grid Environment Based On Clustering Approach
Abstract - One of the important problems in grid environments is data replication in grid sites. Reliability and availability of data replication in some cases is considered low. To separate sites with high reliability and high availability of sites with low availability and low reliability, clustering can be used. In this study, the data grid dynamically evaluate and predict the condition of the sites. The reliability and availability of sites were calculated and it was used to make decisions to replicate data. With these calculations, we have information on the locations of users in grid with reliability and availability or cost commensurate with the value of the work they did. This information can be downloaded from users who are willing to send them data with suitable reliability and availability. Simulation results show that the addition of the two parameters, reliability and availability, assessment criteria have been improved in certain access patterns
GREEDY SINGLE USER AND FAIR MULTIPLE USERS REPLICA SELECTION DECISION IN DATA GRID
Replication in data grids increases data availability, accessibility and reliability.
Replicas of datasets are usually distributed to different sites, and the choice of any
replica locations has a significant impact. Replica selection algorithms decide the best
replica places based on some criteria. To this end, a family of efficient replica
selection systems has been proposed (RsDGrid). The problem presented in this thesis
is how to select the best replica location that achieve less time, higher QoS,
consistency with users' preferences and almost equal users' satisfactions. RsDGrid
consists of three systems: A-system, D-system, and M-system. Each of them has its
own scope and specifications. RsDGrid switches among these systems according to
