Abstract
Grid monitoring involves the monitoring of the available resources and the network. Monitoring the resource metrics helps the grid middleware to decide which job to be submitted to which resource. The resource metrics is not enough for deciding a job to be submitted in a resource. A study and analysis of the network metrics also do equally contribute to the decision making while submitting a job.
