Grid architectures, which are viewed as tools for the
integration of distributed resources, play a significant role as
managers of computational resources, but also as aggregators of
measurement instrumentation and pervasive large-scale data
acquisition platforms. The functionality of a grid architecture
allows managing, maintaining, and exploiting hetereogeneous
instrumentation and acquisition devices in a unifed way by
providing standardized interfaces and common work environments to
their users. This result is achieved through the properties of
isolation from the physical network and from the peculiarites of
the instrumentation granted by standard middleware together with
secure and flexibile mechanisms which seek, access, and aggregate
distributed resources.
This book focuses on a number of aspects related to the
effective exploitation of remote instrumentation on the grid. These
include middleware architecture, high speed networking in support
of grid applications, wireless grid for acquisition devices and
sensor networks, quality of service provisioning for real time
control, and measurement instrumentation.
