Research Abstract	On a computational grid, to provide the environment where application programs can run stably, the mechanism in which servers to be used are automatically switched according to the execution status of the servers is required. In this research, aiming at realization of the automatic switching mechanism of grid servers, while proposing the scheduling techniques which perform task assignment to servers, the grid middleware which has a grid-server auto-switching function was developed.
