RSS scale gridsProviding Data Transfer With QoS as Agreement-Based Service
White Paper Over the last decade, Grids have become a successful tool for providing distributed environments for secure and coordinated execution of applications. The successful deployment of many realistic applications in such environments on a large scale... [04 Aug 2008]
Latency in Grid Over Optical Burst Switching With Heterogeneous Traffic
White Paper Simulation results have shown that in Grids served by an optical burst switch, grid jobs consistently have lower latency than co-existing IP/10GE traffic, with a slightly elevated latency of IP/10GE traffic when the size of grid jobs increases. [18 Jul 2008]
Algorithmic Mechanism Design for Load Balancing in Distributed Systems
White Paper Computational Grids are large scale computing system composed of geographically distributed resources (computers, storage etc.owned by self interested agents or organizations. These agents may manipulate the resource allocation algorithm in their... [10 Jul 2008]
On-Demand VPN Support for Grid Applications
White Paper Quality of Service delivered to Grids by packet-switched networks, is one of the most important factors affecting performance and efficiency of both Grid applications and middleware. The use Virtual Private Network services can improve the overall... [10 Jul 2008]
Intel-Based Solutions for High-Performance Computing and Grid Computing
White Paper By enlisting desktop PCs, departmental servers, large SMP systems and large data center servers, grids can provide affordable resources at unprecedented size and economies of scale. Grids extend the notion of open standards-based cluster platforms... [03 Jul 2008]
A Computational Economy for Grid Computing and Its Implementation in the Nimrod-G Resource Broker
White Paper Computational Grids that couple geographically distributed resources such as PCs, workstations, clusters, and scientific instruments, have emerged as a next generation computing platform for solving large-scale problems in science, engineering... [03 Jul 2008]
Data Synchronization Across Enterprise Grids
White Paper Industry leaders in electronic design automation (EDA) and industrial manufacturing have been using Enterprise Grids since 1996. For the first time, however, attention is paid to the challenge of data synchronization in Enterprise Grids. [03 Jul 2008]
Data Grids and Service-Oriented Architecture
White Paper This white paper addresses the challenges in selecting an SOA strategy, and how clustered caching can improve SOA performance, providing scalability for large-scale transaction volumes. When choosing an SOA strategy, corporations must rely on... [22 Apr 2008]
Issues for Using Computing and Data Grids for Large-Scale Science and Engineering
White Paper One challenge is to identify the minimal set of such services and another is to scale the services to Grids that knit together resources at hundreds of sites. There are many challenges in making Grids a reality, in the sense that they can provide... [10 Apr 2008]
Lossy Bulk Synchronous Parallel Processing Model for Very Large Scale Grids
White Paper The performance of a parallel algorithm in a very large scale grid is significantly influenced by the underlying Internet protocols and inter-connectivity. Many grid programming platforms use TCP due to its reliability, usually with some... [04 Mar 2008]
Grid - Distributed Computing at Scale: An Overview of Grid and the Open Grid Forum4.5
White Paper In a sense, Grids are enabled by virtualization, automation and service-orientation technologies and also integrate these technologies into a unifying solution - particularly across functional and organizational boundaries. [01 Mar 2008]
Overview of Japanese National Research Grid Initiative (NAREGI) Project
White Paper Grid-enable a specific target application, in this case nanoscience, to prove the usefulness of Grids in future scientific and industrial application, and perform experimental deployment of 100 TFLOPS-scale Grids based on the middleware and Grid... [16 Feb 2008]
Automatic Grid Assembly by Promoting Collaboration in Peer-to-Peer Grids
White Paper This procedure does not scale well, and is too inflexible to allow for large open grids. Currently, most computational grids (systems allowing transparent sharing of computing resources across organizational boundaries) are assembled using human... [15 Feb 2008]
User-Space Auto-Tuning for TCP Flow Control in Computational Grids
White Paper With the advent of computational grids, networking performance over the Wide-Area Network (WAN) has become a critical component in the grid infrastructure. As a result, network gurus undertake the tedious process of manually tuning system buffers... [15 Jan 2008]
Dell Helps Lead Scale-Out Industry-Standard Server Computing
White Paper Many have turned to server farms, clusters, or grids of x86 industry-standard servers as cost-effective alternatives to larger, proprietary symmetrical multiprocessing systems. Meeting business requirements for less. [13 Dec 2007]
