whitepaper There are many technologies that comprise grid computing. IBM WebSphere Extended Deployment, however, is an example of an integrated grid platform for virtualizing and managing Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition 1.4 (J2EE) and Java application...
[11 May 2008]
whitepaper A technical solution that utilizes grid computing is described in detail. Specific use cases and their corresponding solutions show how grid technology can be applied to solve real-world problems and how the technology fits within the current data...

whitepaper 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.
[11 May 2008]
whitepaper Midsize UNIX boxes, grid computing schemes, and server farms made up of dozens of smaller systems seem to dominate today's IT infrastructure. IBM has seen growth in its System z mainframe business for six of the last nine quarters, according to IBM...

whitepaper To achieve higher performance at lower cost, TIGR migrated and consolidated processing for a core genetic sequencing application from a HP AlphaServer Tru64 platform to a high-performance computing grid infrastructure using Sun Fire x64 servers...
[05 May 2008]
whitepaper Technology advances in IT systems deliver more and more computing power for dollar, but they can also stress the power and cooling infrastructures and, in some cases, the local utility grid. With virtualization offering increased performance per...
[05 May 2008]
whitepaper A Sun Grid Rack System for High Performance Computing, comprised of 400 Sun Fire X2100 servers, was integrated by the Sun Customer Ready Systems program. One of the largest academic medical centers in the United States and a leader in clinical...

whitepaper This paper presents two different approaches to partially overcome the limitations in Grid computing introduced by firewalls. However, the traditional client-server paradigm supported by most of today's firewall does not accommodate the specific...
[11 Apr 2008]
whitepaper The concept of grid computing is very similar to the methods used to create many massively parallel supercomputers. The main difference is that supercomputers have much faster connections between processors and between processors and memory than...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper Grid computing has emerged as a dominant, pervasive metaphor in the past decade. Today it is virtually impossible to discuss high performance or scientific computing of any sort without reference to grid technologies.
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper 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]
whitepaper The development of supportive middleware to manage resources and distributed workload across multiple administrative boundaries is of central importance to Grid computing. Active middleware services that perform look-up, match-making, scheduling...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper The emphasis in Grid computing research has predominantly been focused on services. It is not surprising that most of the high-profile, Grid-related work focuses on services and middleware. Researchers, hardware manufacturers, and end-users alike...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper Global access to storage is a common theme of Grid Computing, with access mechanisms often enforcing a major restriction on the distribution of significant applications across a computational grid. For applications that are truly data intensive...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper A number of distributed computing technologies are being applied to grid development work, including CORBA and Jini. This paper introduces an A4 (Agile Architecture and Autonomous Agents) methodology, which can be used for resource management for...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper By deploying grid computing software, organizations can virtualize their IT environments and extend their key applications to gain competitive advantage. Organizations are increasingly turning to clustered low-cost Intel architecture (IA) systems...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper This paper proposes VGrid: an ad hoc networking and computational grid, which can be formed by leveraging inter-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside wireless communications. Rather than just using ad-hoc networks for exchanging data between vehicles...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper Grid middleware development has advanced rapidly over the past few years to support component-based programming models and service-orientated architectures. Grid applications are increasingly modular, composed of workflow descriptions that can...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper Reflecting on the current frailty of much software, grid and otherwise, this paper proposes that the Ethernet approach to resource sharing is an effective and reliable technique for combining coarse-grained software when failures are common and...
