RSS grid environmentsSummary of Existing and Developing Data Grids
White Paper The Grid Forum Remote Data Access group is charged with the task of establishing standard methods of practice for providing transparent remote access to heterogeneous data resources in grid environments. [03 Jul 2008]
GridFTP: a Data Transfer Protocol for the Grid
White Paper We propose a common data transfer and access protocol called GridFTP that provides secure, efficient data movement in Grid environments. The lack of standard protocols for transfer and access of data in the Grid has led to a fragmented Grid storage... [03 Jul 2008]
The Globus Project: a Status Report
White Paper Computational grid technology is being viewed as a critical element of future high-performance computing environments that will enable entirely new classes of computation-oriented applications, much as the World Wide Web fostered the development... [03 Jul 2008]
Secure, Efficient Data Transport and Replica Management for High-Performance Data-Intensive Computing
White Paper In this paper, we present our design of these services in the Globus grid computing environment. After studying data-intensive, high-performance computing applications such as high-energy physics and climate modeling, we conclude that these... [03 Jul 2008]
Cooperative Intrusion Detection System (CIDS) in Grid Environment
White Paper Applying intrusion detection to the fast growing computational Grid environments improves the security which is considered to be the heart of this new field. Flexible cooperative distributed intrusion detection architecture is introduced that suits... [19 Jun 2008]
Best Practices for Data Sharing in a Grid Distributed SAS Environment
White Paper Customers are looking to SAS to provide guidance and recommendations on configuration of distributed environments. Data volumes continue to grow at unprecedented rates. Enterprise solutions must be able to access and process this data efficiently... [31 May 2008]
Perspectives on Grid: Virtualization as a Foundation for SOA Environments - Synergies, Alignment, and the Relationship Between SOA and Infrastructure Virtualization
White Paper In this paper, Matt Haynos provides a cursory analysis of the similarities and differences between grid computing and SOA and infrastructure virtualization techniques. SOA and infrastructure virtualization techniques are highly synergistic. [30 Apr 2008]
Perspectives on Grid: An Overview of WebSphere Extended Deployment - Examining WebSphere XD as an Integrated Grid Platform for SOA and Infrastructure Virtualization Environments
White Paper In this paper, one will get an overview of WebSphere Extended Deployment and how it can help the organization realize a dynamic, goals-driven grid infrastructure built on virtualization and which is ideal for SOA environments. [26 Apr 2008]
Scalable Windows Servers for the Data Center
White Paper In some cases, customers will choose to link multiple servers with clustering or grid software to support a given workload. Workloads such as business intelligence, database, decision support, and ERP applications - which are already available for... [26 Apr 2008]
Dynamic Firewalls and Service Deployment Models for Grid Environments
White Paper However, the traditional client-server paradigm supported by most of today's firewall does not accommodate the specific requirements of novel Grid applications. This paper presents two different approaches to partially overcome the limitations in... [11 Apr 2008]
A Methodology for Account Management in Grid Computing Environments
White Paper A national infrastructure of Grid computing environments will provide access for a large pool of users to a large number of distributed computing resources. Providing access for the complete pool of potential users would put an unacceptably large... [10 Apr 2008]
Building Performance Topologies for Computational Grids
White Paper This paper describes the architecture, implementation and performance of a service for the delivery of dynamic performance information in Grid environments. Based on usage requirements gleaned from real applications being developed as part of the... [10 Apr 2008]
Issues for Using Computing and Data Grids for Large-Scale Science and Engineering
White Paper While the basic Grid services have been demonstrated, e.g.in the IPG prototype demonstrated at the Supercomputing 1999 conference, and the GUSTO testbed demonstrated in 1998, a general purpose computing, data management, and real-time... [10 Apr 2008]
A Centralized Data Access Model for Grid Computing
White Paper For applications that are truly data intensive, this may render them either highly inefficient, or even incapable of using grid computing environments. Global access to storage is a common theme of Grid Computing, with access mechanisms often... [10 Apr 2008]
Distributed File System Support for Virtual Machines in Grid Computing
White Paper This paper presents a data management solution which allows fast Virtual Machine (VM) instantiation and efficient run-time execution to support VMs as execution environments in Grid computing. It is based on novel distributed file system... [23 Mar 2008]
