N2 - Effective use of computational grids requires up-to-date information about widely-distributed resources within it - a challenging problem given the scale of the grid, and the continously changing state of the resources. We propose non-uniform information dissemination protocols to efficiently propagate information to distributed repositories, without requiring flooding or centralized approaches. Capitalizing on the observation that grid resources are of more interest to nearby users, we disseminate resource information with a frequency and resolution inversely proportional to the distance from the resource. Results indicate a significant reduction in the overhead compared to uniform dissemination to all repositories.
