        Grid computing environments include heterogeneous resources shared by a large number of computers to handle the data and process intensive applications. The required resources must be accessible for Grid applications on demand, which makes the resource discovery a critical service in Grid environments. In recent years, diverse techniques are provided to index and discover the Grid resources. The response time and message load during the search process highly affect the efficiency of resource discovery. This paper proposes a new technique to forward the queries based on the resource types which are accessible through each branch in hierarchical Grid resource discovery approaches. The proposed technique is simulated in GridSim and the experimental results indicated that it is able to reduce the response time and message load during the search process especially when the Grid environment contains a large number of nodes.

        Today, cloud markets, especially Amazon, have attracted a lot of attention from users due to the provision of Spot Virtual Machines (SVMs). It has several advantages for both sides of the market. On the one hand, Amazon can generate revenue from its underutilized virtual machines. On the other hand, the customer can get the SVM as needed at a dynamic price through an auction method. Providing optimal bidding strategies in such a market is a crucial challenge. The bidding price is affected by uncertain parameters such as the price of SVMs, the number of available SVMs, the number of current customers, and their bidding values. In this paper, we use Information Gap Decision Theory (IGDT) to determine the best bidding strategy. Our proposed method includes both risk-averse and risk-neutral strategies. The evaluation results based on historical Amazon EC2 prices confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method in the presence of uncertain prices. It has high performance compared to the baseline methods in terms of robustness cost, uncertainty budget, and execution time. Manuscript profile

        3 - An Overview of Group Key Management Issues in IEEE 802.16e Networks

        The computer industry has defined the IEEE 802.16 family of standards that will enable mobile devices to access a broadband network as an alternative to digital subscriber line technology. As the mobile devices join and leave a network, security measures must be taken to ensure the safety of the network against unauthorized usage by encryption and group key management. IEEE 802.16e uses Multicast and Broadcast Service (MBS) as an efficient mechanism to distribute the same data concurrently to Multiple mobile Stations (MSs) through one Base Station (BS). To generate, update and distribute the group keys, the MBS applies Multicast and Broadcast Rekeying Algorithm (MBRA). The main performance parameters of group key management schemes are typically communications, computation and storage cost as well as scalability. The purpose of this paper is to review and investigate the challenges and security issues of performance parameters in different group key managements in IEEE 802.16e. Manuscript profile
