whitepaper 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...
[22 Mar 2008]
whitepaper Grid is a core concept in modern distributed computing architectures and is aligned with other important distributed computing technologies such as virtualization, service-orientation and data center automation.
[29 Feb 2008]
whitepaper This field has seen much research for potential applications in the field of distributed and Grid computing. In this way the goals of on-demand computing overlap with and are similar to those of Grid computing: both enable the pooling of global...

whitepaper Many of these applications utilizing the Grid are expected to generate enormous amount of data, and there is an imminent need for enhanced mechanisms for utilizing the necessary distributed storage resources.
[14 Feb 2008]
whitepaper A Grid computer is a hardware and software system that integrates a collection of distributed system components (e.g.computer systems, storage, etc.making them appear to the user as a single, large "virtualized" computing system.
[07 Feb 2008]
whitepaper In wide-area Grid computing, geographically distributed computational resources are connected for enabling efficient and large-scale scientific/engineering computations. In the wide-area Grid computing, a data transfer protocol called GridFTP has...

whitepaper This paper further describes how these features enable not only efficient information integration, but efficient data provisioning for grid computing, as well. This paper covers information integration using distributed SQL, Oracle Streams, Oracle...
[08 Aug 2007]
whitepaper Built entirely on the Microsoft .NET platform, it is radically easier to buy, install, learn, and use than other grid computing solutions. The Digipede Network is a distributed computing solution that delivers dramatically improved performance for...
[05 Jul 2007]
whitepaper This paper provides a cursory analysis of the similarities and differences between grid computing and such distributed computing systems as P2P, CORBA, cluster computing, and DCE. Two major needs have dramatically increased the value of the concept...
[04 Jul 2007]
whitepaper Microsoft's .NET Framework has become near-ubiquitous for implementing commercial distributed systems for Windows-based platforms, positioning it as the ideal platform for grid computing in this context.
[03 Jul 2007]
whitepaper Accessing WS-Resources (according to WSRF) in a manner compatible with the REST principles, using a Web browser, makes it possible to provide a light-weight, portable client for interacting with scientific simulations in distributed computing...
