Resource management is an important component of a grid computing infrastructure. The scalability and adaptability of such systems are two key challenges that must be addressed. In this work an agent-based resource management system, ARMS, is implemented for grid computing. ARMS utilises the performance prediction techniques of the PACE toolkit to provide quantitative data regarding the performance of complex applications running on a local grid resource. At the meta-level, a hierarchy of homogeneous agents are used to provide a scalable and adaptable abstraction of the system architecture. Each agent is able to cooperate with other agents and thereby provide service advertisement and discovery for the scheduling of applications that need to utilise grid resources. A case study with corresponding experimental results is included to demonstrate the efficiency of the resource management and scheduling system.

Hybrid clouds integrate different cloud solutions. Its inherent complexity and short of standard urge for a careful analysis, systematizing and understanding of monitoring. In this context, this paper provides a deep insight into hybrid cloud monitoring. It proposes a layered monitoring model for hybrid clouds, identifying the multiple layers of monitoring, focusing on physical infrastructure layer, virtual infrastructure layer, network, application/service layer, while combining the perspectives of service providers and clients. This process involves the identification of relevant parameters and metrics for each layer. Due to its flexibiliity and intelligence, using Agent technology, an agent-based monitoring architecture is presented. It enables to eliminate the complexity among different cloud platforms.This study contributes to achieve a clearer and more efficient approach to hybrid cloud monitoring.
