Abstract
The intelligent agent works powerful jobs for handling system complexity and making systems more modular. Especially a reasoning agent is effective on organizing for decision-making process of systems. This paper introduces an Ontology-based Intelligent Agent for a Grid Resource Management System (OIAGRMS), which uses ontology reasoning to select a suitable resource supplier, is proposed. This paper focuses on effective grid resource management and the improvement of resource utilization through transaction management for the OIAGRMS. For performance evaluation with accuracy and reliability, the OIAGRMS is compared with the Prediction-based Agent for Grid Resource Management System(PAGRMS) and the Random-based Agent for Grid Resource Management System(RAGRMS). The OIAGRMS recorded over 90 percents trade success, but the PAGRMS and RAGRMS recorded less than a 90 percents trade success. In comparing of resource utilization rate, maximum deviation, standard deviation, the OIAGRMS were about 9.4 and 9.8 percents but the PAGRMS are about 22.9 and 16.3 percents, the RAGRMS were about 61.6 and 21.7 percents. The empirical results demonstrate the usefulness and improvement utilization with stable performances of the intelligent agent base on ontology reasoning in grid environment.
