Experimental analysis on secured agent based resource matching and virtual grouping of cloud resources — An integrated approach

computing which enables customers to access
the un-limited resources on demand and without any fixed
upfront cost. The notion of cloud computing has not only
reshaped the field of distributed systems but also
fundamentally changed how businesses utilize computing
today. An important issue faced in cloud in all the aspects is
to match the needed resources to the consumers/users
effectively i.e., with minimum or acceptable response time. A
virtual grouping of resources has been done based on
grouping of instance families and it resides in service
providers. The virtual Machines (VM) offers the appropriate
and more flexible way to configure and access the resources.
A set of broker agents match consumers’ requests to
resources from providers. Empirical results show that
mapper agents are doing well in matching requests to
resources.
