Preliminary specification and design documentation for software components to achieve Catallaxy in computational systems (2005)

Torsten Eymann Werner Streitberger Michael Reinicke Felix Freitag Pablo Chacin Isaac Chao Björn Schnizler Daniel Veit

Die Arbeit beschreibt die Spezifikation und das Design von Softwarekomponenten, um das Konzept der Katallaxie in Grid Systemen umzusetzen. Eine Einführung ordnet das Konzept der Katallaxie in bestehende Grid Taxonomien ein und stellt grundlegende Komponenten vor. Anschließend werden diese Komponenten auf ihre Anwendbarkeit in bestehenden Application Layer Netzwerken untersucht.

Analysis of current middleware in peer-to-peer and grid implementations for enhancement by catallactic mechanisms (2005)

Pablo Chacin Isaac Chao Felix Freitag

Die Arbeit definiert Anforderungen an Grid und Peer-to-Peer Middleware Architekturen und analysiert diese auf ihre Eignung für die prototypische Umsetzung der Katallaxie. Eine Middleware-Architektur für die Umsetzung der Katallaxie in Application Layer Netzwerken wird vorgestellt.

Analysis and Selection of the Simulation Environment (2005)

Gianfranco Giulioni Floriano Zini

Diese Arbeit analysiert die Anforderungen an eine Simulationsumgebung für die Analyse der Katallaxie. Anhand von Kennzahlen wird die Auswahl der Simulationsumgebung bestimmt.

Environmental Analysis for Application Layer Networks (2005)

Björn Schnizler Dirk Neumann Daniel Veit Mauro Napoletano Michele Catalano Mauro Gallegati Michael Reinicke Werner Streitberger Torsten Eymann

Die zunehmende Vernetzung von Rechners über das Internet lies die Vision von Application Layer Netzwerken aufkommen. Sie umfassen Overlay Netzwerke wie beispielsweise Peer-to-Peer Netzwerke und Grid Infrastrukturen unter Verwendung des TCP/IP Protokolls. Ihre gemeinsame Eigenschaft ist die redundante, verteilte Bereitstellung und der Zugang zu Daten-, Rechen- und Anwendungsdiensten, während sie die Heterogenität der Infrastruktur vor dem Nutzer verbergen. In dieser Arbeit werden die Anforderungen, die diese Netzwerke an ökonomische Allokationsmechanismen stellen, untersucht. Die Analyse erfolgt anhand eines Marktanalyseprozesses für einen zentralen Auktionsmechanismus und einen katallaktischen Markt.

Analysis of Simulation Environment (2005)

Torsten Eymann Michael Reinicke Werner Streitberger Floriano Zini Gianfranco Giulioni

In this paper the requirements for an ALN simulation environment are analysed, as needed in the CATNETS Project. A number of grid and general purpose simulators are evaluated regarding the identified requirements for simulating economical resource allocation mechanisms in ALNs. Subsequently a suitable simulator is chosen for usage in the CATNETS project.

Proof-of-Concept Application - Annual Report Year 1 (2005)

Torsten Eymann Oscar Ardaiz Pablo Chacin Isaac Chao Juan Carlos Cruellas Felix Freitag Manuel Medina Leandro Navarro Miguel Valero Omer Rana Liviu Joita

In this document the Cat-COVITE Application for use in the CATNETS Project is introduced and motivated. Furthermore an introduction to the catallactic middleware and Web Services Agreement (WS-Agreement) concepts is given as a basis for the future work. Requirements for the application of Cat-COVITE with in catallactic systems are analysed. Finally the integration of the Cat-COVITE application and the catallactic middleware is described.

Evaluation and Metrics Framework (2005)

Michele Catalano Gianfranco Giulioni Werner Streitberger Michael Reinicke Torsten Eymann

In this paper a metrics framework for evaluating different scenarios in the CATNETS project is defined. The aim is to use this framework to compare the catallactic scenario against the central auctioneer.

Theoretical and Computational Basis for Economical Ressource Allocation in Application Layer Networks -Annual Report Year 1 (2005)

Torsten Eymann Michael Reinicke Werner Streitberger Björn Schnizler Daniel Veit Felix Freitag Isaac Chao Pablo Chacin Dirk Neumann

This paper identifies and defines suitable market mechanisms for Application Layer Networks (ALNs). On basis of the structured Market Engineering process, the work comprises the identification of requirements which adequate market mechanisms for ALNs have to fulfill. Subsequently, two mechanisms for each, the centralized and the decentralized case are described in this document.5

A Theoretical and Computational Basis for CATNETS (2006)

Björn Schnizler Dirk Neumann Daniel Veit Michael Reinicke Werner Streitberger Torsten Eymann Felix Freitag Isaac Chao Pablo Chacin

The main content of this report is the identification and definition of market mechanisms for Application Layer Networks (ALNs). On basis of the structured Market Engineering process, the work comprises the identification of requirements which adequate market mechanisms for ALNs have to fulfill. Subsequently, two mechanisms for each, the centralized and the decentralized case are described in this document. These build the theoretical foundation for the work within the following two years of the CATNETS project.

Theoretical and Computational Basis for CATNETS - Annual Report Year 2 (2006)

Torsten Eymann Werner Streitberger Daniel Veit Georg Buss Björn Schnizler Dirk Neumann

In this work the self-organising potential of the CATNETS allocation mechanism is described to provide a more comprehensive view on the research done in this project. The formal description of either the centralised and decentralised approach is presented. Furthermore the agents’ bidding model is described and a comprehensive overview on how the catallactic mechanism is incorporated into the middleware and simulator environments is given.
