Analysis of Simulation Environment

One of the main issues in the development of future Grid and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networksystems is the efficient exploitation of services and resources available in the network.A scalable, dynamic, and adaptable allocation mechanism is essential so that quality ofservice requirements from network users are met. For example, imagine a distributedsystem for on-demand provision of digital music. The typical user of such a system wouldlike to rapidly and economically access music-playing services which, in turn, must beable to rapidly retrieve low-cost digital music files in order to meet users' desiderata. Inthis scenario there is the need of service and resource allocation mechanisms that are ableto allocate both music playing services to users and digital music files to playing servicestaking into account the continuous changes in network service load and placement ofmusic files....
