    GECON 2006
    Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Grid Economics and Business Models
    Singapore, 16 May 2006

    edited by Hing-Yan Lee (National Grid Office, Singapore) & Steven Miller (Singapore Management University, Singapore)

    Grid computing systems utilize the heterogeneous networked resources, such as computation, information, database, storage, bandwidth, etc., through the Internet. The systems can operate in predefined and organized ways or form the collected resource systems through self-organizing and decentralized ways. Even with the various types of abundant resources in the Internet, the resources that can be organized and operated in the presence of multiple resource owners with the uncertainty of resource availability and quality are scarce.

    This volume contains refereed and invited papers presented at the 3rd International Workshop on Grid Economics and Business Models held on 16 May 2006 at the Singapore Management University, in conjunction with GridAsia 2006. It includes contributions by researchers and practitioners from multiple disciplines that discuss the economy of the systems concerned, with focus on the operational and deployment issues of Grid Economy.

     
    Contents:
    • Grid Economy Test-Beds and Operation
    • Market Managed Operation of the Internet
    • Grid Systems' Economy and Its Operation and Development
    • Pricing, Charging and Accounting Issues of Heterogeneous Resources
    • Identity Economics and Anonymity of Distributed Systems
    • Suggestions for Grid Commercialization Strategies
     
    Readership: Graduate students, academics, researchers, and practitioners in computer science, management science and information systems.
