A Component Framework for Building Web Science Gateways and Portals
White Paper Portlet-based Grid portals have become a crucial part of the international distributed computing infrastructure to support computational science ("Cyberinfrastructure") provide component-based problem solving environments for scientists. [11 Jul 2008]
Building Mini-Grid Environments With Virtual Private Networks: A Pragmatic Approach
White Paper To reach this goal, the formation of a "Mini-Grid" is discussed using a Virtual Private Network to couple clusters on the message-passing level. This is a simple and pragmatic approach for those cases where the functionality (and complexity) of... [10 Jul 2008]
Usefulness of Virtual Private Networks for Mini-Grid Environments Demonstrated by Parallel Cellular Automata Simulation
White Paper This paper discusses the coupling of several cluster computers using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to form a "Mini-Grid". The simulation of a technical system is an invaluable step in its design process. [10 Jul 2008]
Hierarchical Partitioning and Dynamic Load Balancing for Scientific Computation
White Paper Cluster and grid computing has made hierarchical and heterogeneous computing systems increasingly common as target environments for large-scale scientific computation. A grid computation may involve communication across slow interfaces. [10 Jul 2008]
Dynamic Load Balancing Strategy for Grid Computing
White Paper This paper proposes a layered algorithm which achieves dynamic load balancing in grid computing. Workload and resource management are two essential functions provided at the service level of the grid software infrastructure. [10 Jul 2008]
Hierarchical Resource Management and Application Control in Grid Environments
White Paper This paper presents an ongoing work that deals with these limitations, focusing on applications that spread a very large number of tasks across the grid network. Several works on grid computing have been proposed in the last years. [03 Jul 2008]
Data Management and Transfer in High-Performance Computational Grid Environments
White Paper We describe here two services that we believe are fundamental to any Data Grid: reliable, high-speed transport and replica management. Our high-speed transport service, GridFTP, extends the popular FTP protocol with new features required for Data... [03 Jul 2008]
An Architecture for Replica Management in Grid Computing Environments
White Paper We present the architecture of a replica management service that manages the copying and placement of files in a high-performance, distributed computing environment to optimize the performance of the data-intensive applications. [03 Jul 2008]
A Computational Economy for Grid Computing and Its Implementation in the Nimrod-G Resource Broker
White Paper However, application development, resource management, and scheduling in these environments continue to be a complex undertaking. Computational Grids that couple geographically distributed resources such as PCs, workstations, clusters, and... [03 Jul 2008]
Summary 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]
Grid Watch: GGF and Grid Data
White Paper In a grid environment (as with most other computational environments), data must be discovered, stored, abstracted, transformed, managed, integrated, distributed, published, transported, secured, recovered, and queried. [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]
Towards the Next-Generation Grid: A Pervasive Environment for Knowledge-Based Computing
White Paper The Grid is an integrated infrastructure for coordinated resource sharing and problem solving in distributed environments. A main factor that will drive the development and evolution of the Grid will be the necessity to face the enormous amount of... [03 Jul 2008]
Security in Multi-Domain Grid Environments
White Paper This paper focuses on the Authorisation aspects of security in grid environments spanning multiple administrative domains. The EU DataGrid project has made a comprehensive security architecture and implemented many components of this for use by all... [03 Jul 2008]
OGSI-Based System Management: Manageability Services for Linux
White Paper The Open Grid Services Architecture (OGSA) provides a means of integrating systems, services, and other resources in heterogeneous, highly distributed environments. The foundation of autonomic management includes two basic elements: sensors and... [03 Jul 2008]
