Abstract
Grid markets today have very limited capabilities with regards to reservations. However, it is vital that customers are given the ability to purchase resources far in advance of the actual usage which necessitates the existence of a sold reservation model. While this is not an issue of great importance in today’s Grid markets, reservation schemes must be developed to enable a sustainable operation of Grid markets. This paper explores a number of different reservation models that are in use today and evaluates their usefulness both from the point of view of resource sellers as well as from the point of view of resource buyers. It then goes on to propose a new reservation scheme for grid markets.
