Abstract

This chapter focuses on the use of Grid technologies to achieve utility computing. An overview of how Grids can support utility computing is first presented through the architecture of Utility Grids. Then, utility-based resource allocation is described in detail at each level of the architecture. Finally, some industrial solutions for utility computing are discussed.
