Abstract
A load-balancing mechanism for grids in a multi-grid network. Using embodiments, one or more job submitters may distribute jobs to grids in a multi-grid network according to the load of the grids, thus spreading the load of jobs to be processed among the grids and helping to insure that jobs are handled in a timely fashion. In one embodiment, a job submitter may use peer-to-peer platform protocols to obtain load information about the grids, and then use the information about the grids to select one of the grids to perform a particular job according to the load of the grids. Determining the load on the grids may be based on information acquired from the grids including one or more of, but not limited to, how many jobs are pending in a grid's job queue and estimated time for completing the jobs in the grid's job queue.
