Title - Using Grid Efficiently

Abstract

Grids enable the sharing of heterogeneous resources across geographically 
distributed locations. Grid technology is in an active research phase and 
projected to be used by future E-science applications which generate large
amounts of data. In this talk, I will cover three results from my thesis 
research, each of which aims at improving grid utilization.  The first 
result is on scheduling the optical network which connects the various grid
components. The second result investigates and compares on-demand and 
advance resource reservation models for the grid. The third result is on 
resource co-allocation in the grid.
