The first single-source reference covering the state of the art in grid and utility computing economy research. This book presents the first integrated, single-source reference on market-oriented grid and utility computing. Divided into four main parts--and with contributions from a panel of experts in the field--it systematically and carefully explores:. Foundations --presents the fundamental concepts of market-oriented computing and the issues and challenges in allocating resources in a decentralized computing environment.;. Business models --covers business models for service providers and brokers supporting different types of distributed applications, as well as business rules-based models for managing virtual organizations and accounting operations and services in grid computing environments.; Policies and agreements --introduces policies, agreements, and specifications for the negotiation and establishment of contracts between providers and consumers. It also covers different approaches for resource allocation based on service-level agreements (SLAs) and management of risks associated with SLA violations.; Resource allocation and scheduling mechanisms --covers economic models, such as commodity models, reciprocation, auctions, and game theory, and middleware technologies, such as Nimrod/G and Gridbus, for market-oriented grid computing and utility-oriented resource allocation
