--- _id: '1991' abstract: - lang: eng text: In this paper, we describe the architecture of the virtual resource manager VRM, a management system designed to reside on top of local resource management systems for cluster computers and other kinds of resources. The most important feature of the VRM is its capability to handle quality-of-service (QoS) guarantees and service-level agreements (SLAs). The particular emphasis of the paper is on the various opportunities to deal with local autonomy for resource management systems not supporting SLAs. As local administrators may not want to hand over complete control to the Grid management, it is necessary to define strategies that deal with this issue. Local autonomy should be retained as much as possible while providing reliability and QoS guarantees for Grid applications, e.g., specified as SLAs. author: - first_name: Lars-Olof full_name: Burchard, Lars-Olof last_name: Burchard - first_name: Felix full_name: Heine, Felix last_name: Heine - first_name: Hans-Ulrich full_name: Heiss, Hans-Ulrich last_name: Heiss - first_name: Matthias full_name: Hovestadt, Matthias last_name: Hovestadt - first_name: Odej full_name: Kao, Odej last_name: Kao - first_name: Axel full_name: Keller, Axel id: '15274' last_name: Keller - first_name: Barry full_name: Linnert, Barry last_name: Linnert - first_name: Jörg full_name: Schneider, Jörg last_name: Schneider citation: ama: 'Burchard L-O, Heine F, Heiss H-U, et al.
