| Abstract | This paper presents a mathematical model using Stochastic Activity Networks (SANs) to model a grid resource, and compute the throughput of a resource in servicing grid tasks, wherein the failure–repair behavior of the processors inside the resource is taken into account. The proposed SAN models the structural behavior of a grid resource and evaluates the combined performance and availability measure of the resource. Afterwards, the curve fitting technique is used to find a suitable function fitted to the throughput of a resource for grid tasks. Having this function and the size of each grid job based on its tasks, an algorithm is proposed to compute the makespan of each available resource to a sequence of grid jobs assigned to the resource. Using the makespans of all grid resources computed in the previous step, the total makespan of the entire grid environment can be computed. Hence, a scheduling algorithm based on the Simulated Annealing (SA) meta-heuristic is presented to find a good enough scheduling of jobs on resources with the aim of minimizing the total makespan of the entire grid. Numerical results obtained by applying the proposed SAN model, the algorithm presented to find the makespan of a single resource, and the proposed SA-based scheduling algorithm to a desktop grid show the applicability of the proposed approach in real grid environments. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
