A resource broker with a user-friendly interface for job submission developed on a platform constructed using the Globus toolkit is proposed. The broker employs a domain-based network information model and dynamic version to measure network statuses, and also monitors and collects resource statuses and network-related information as the basis of its brokerage. A network bandwidth-aware job scheduling algorithm for brokering suitable Grid resources to communication-intensive jobs based on improving and preserving the advantages of our previously developed network information model is also proposed. Using timely information, the resource broker effectively matches Grid resources and user requests, thus improving job execution efficiency.
