What is Grid Resource Management

Chapter 29
Handbook of Research on Computational Grid Technologies for Life Sciences, Biomedicine, and Healthcare
It refers to all of the actions to be considered in order to efficiently use the available computational resources in a distributed environment. The grid resource management must take into account the heterogeneity of the resource in terms of processors, storage and network performance.

Abstract
The LIBI project (International Laboratory of BioInformatics), which started in 2005 and will end in 2009, was initiated with the aim of setting up an advanced bioinformatics and computational biology laboratory, focusing on basic and applied research in modern biology and biotechnologies. One of the goals of this project has been the development of a Grid Problem Solving Environment, built on top of EGEE, DEISA and SPACI infrastructures, to allow the submission and monitoring of jobs mapped to complex experiments in bioinformatics. In this work we describe the architecture of this environment and describe several case studies and related results which have been obtained using it.
