  I volunteer to contribute to (2.C) on Grid Trading and Computational Economy
  aspects. These topics are yet to be addressed within Grid community. You may
  want to browse:
     http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~rajkumar/papers/ecogrid.pdf
  We have used these services in our Nimrod/G resource broker and I think that they
  can be generalised and shared widely with Grid community.  
  Please let me know what is your opinion on this.

Cheers
Raj
