Big Data Processing by Volunteer Computing Supported by Intelligent Agents

In this paper, volunteer computing systems have been proposed for big data processing. Moreover, intelligent agents have been developed to efficiency improvement of a grid middleware layer. In consequence, an intelligent volunteer grid has been equipped with agents that belong to five sets. The first one consists of some user tasks. Furthermore, two kinds of semi-intelligent tasks have been introduced to implement a middleware layer. Finally, two agents based on genetic programming as well as harmony search have been applied to optimize big data processing.
