Abstract

Although there are many high performance personal computers (PCs), it is not yet possible to apply these systems to the Grid computing resource because of several unstable features. This research is to design an effective configuration method to use a large number of PCs for PC-based Grid computing. The best way is to design a configuration method to treat a collection of PCs as a Grid component for the Grid component. For this goal, layered services are constructed as a uniform architecture, and each service at a layer is implemented by agents. The system is designed by using the mobility of smart agents to guarantee the reliability and effectiveness. And an effective way for gathering resource information can support an effective scheduling and configuration. The experimental result shows that around 60% of the total computing power can be obtained when a half of PCs are chosen as a Grid component for a given number of PCs and PCs participated in a Grid component are used by arbitrary users.
