Latency in Grid Over Optical Burst Switching With Heterogeneous Traffic
White Paper Optical Burst Switching (OBS) has been proposed as the next generation optical network for grid computing. This paper envisions a heterogeneous Grid served by an Optical Burst Switching framework, where grid traffic co-exists with IP and/or a 10 GE... [18 Jul 2008]
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]
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]
Rerouting Grid Applications Across Firewalls
White Paper The Grid refers to "A distributed computing infrastructure for advanced science and engineering". Grid applications require advanced computations through distributed processing, with an explicit focus on supporting Virtual Organizations (VOs). [09 Jul 2008]
RIKEN Sees Excellent Results With Linux High Performance Computing Clusters Using Intel Xeon Processors
White Paper By utilizing grid technology, RIKEN provides a remote-operating environment and Web-based access for easy usability. RIKEN has placed a major emphasis on life science research for the future, and thus it is critical to introduce high-performance... [03 Jul 2008]
From Monolithic to Grid
White Paper There was very little reach into civilian, secular life, and the work they performed was an esoteric science. The major feature of computing was the mainframe computer that took up a few hundred square feet of space, plus working space for its... [03 Jul 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]
GridWeaver: Automatic, Adaptive, Large-Scale Fabric Configuration for Grid Computing
White Paper 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. This paper introduces system configuration as a major... [10 Apr 2008]
From Virtualized Resources to Virtual Computing Grids: The In-VIGO System
White Paper The architecture is designed to support computational tools for engineering and science research In Virtual Information Grid Organizations (as opposed to in vivo or in vitro experimental research). This paper describes the architecture of the first... [01 Mar 2008]
Supercomputer helps cut drug research time
Case Study Ashton said the synchrotron produces 80Mb of data per second when running at its peak, meaning grid computing is sometimes required to cope with the data. The Diamond Light synchrotron - which is based in the Diamond Light Source facility on the... [18 Sep 2007]
Alchemi: A .NET-Based Enterprise Grid Computing System
White Paper Software to enable grid computing has been primarily written for Unix-class operating systems, thus severely limiting the ability to effectively utilize the computing resources of the vast majority of Windows-based desktop computers. [03 Jul 2007]
An Implementation of OGSI on Microsoft .NET
White Paper MS.NETGrid is a project to demonstrate the relevance of the Microsoft .NET suite of technologies to e-Science and Grid computing. This is a portion of the work of the MS.NETGrid project undertaken at the National e-Science Centre (NeSC) between... [03 Jul 2007]
The GrADS Project: Software Support for High-Level Grid Application Development
White Paper This paper describes the vision and strategies underlying the GrADS project, including the base software architecture for Grid execution and performance monitoring, strategies and tools for construction of applications from libraries of Grid-aware... [15 Jun 2007]
Photos: The super-brain behind the particle smasher
Photo LHC's super-grid will use and support national and regional grid networks around the world - such as the GridPP project in the UK and a European project called Enabling Grids for E-Science in Europe (Egee). [21 May 2007]
On the Use of Virtualization and Service Technologies to Enable Grid-Computing
White Paper In-VIGO was conceived to enable computational science to take place In Virtual Information Grid Organizations. The In-VIGO approach to Grid-computing relies on the dynamic establishment of virtual grids on which application services are instantiated. [01 Apr 2007]
