As Grid Computing becomes a reality, a resource broker is needed to manage and monitor available resources. This work presents a workflow-based computational resource broker whose main function is to match available resources with user requests and consider network information status during matchmaking. The resource broker provides a uniform interface for accessing available and the appropriate resources via user credentials. We utilize the NWS tool to monitor the network-related information and resources status. Also, we constructed a grid platform using Globus Toolkit that integrates the distributed resources of five universities in Taichung, Taiwan, where the resource broker is developed. As a result, the proposed broker provides secure and updated information about available resources and serves as a link to the diverse systems available in the Grid.
