Dynamic replica management in the service grid

As the Internet is evolving away from providing simple connectivity towards providing more sophisticated services, it is difficult to provide efficient delivery of high-demand services to end users, due to the dynamic sharing of the network and connected servers. To address this problem, we propose the service grid architecture that incorporates dynamic replication and deletion of services.
