– In the research group on self-organizing Grid services, we intend to investigate how to built large-scale distributed high-performance Grid services with self-* properties, such as self-configuring, self-organizing, self-managing, self-tuning and self-healing, with a focus on self-organization. Our approach is to use self-organizing properties of structured peer-to-peer systems for building Self-Organizing Grid services. We intend to find mechanisms for self-organization of large-scale grid services build on overlay peer-to-peer networks that show a potential for building large-scale systems with autonomic management. We believe that structured P2P approach and self-organizing abilities of the P2P overlay networks allows improving scalability of Grid services and leads to improving overall efficiency of Grids.
