A Thorough Overview of the Next Generation in Computing Poised to
follow in the footsteps of the Internet, grid computing is on the
verge of becoming more robust and accessible to the public in the
near future. Focusing on this novel, yet already powerful,
technology, Introduction to Grid Computing explores
state-of-the-art grid projects, core grid technologies, and
applications of the grid. After comparing the grid with other
distributed systems, the book covers two important aspects of a
grid system: scheduling of jobs and resource discovery and
monitoring in grid. It then discusses existing and emerging
security technologies, such as WS-Security and OGSA security, as
well as the functions of grid middleware at a conceptual level. The
authors also describe famous grid projects, demonstrate the pricing
of European options through the use of the Monte Carlo method on
grids, and highlight different parallelization possibilities on the
grid. Taking a tutorial approach, this concise book provides a
complete introduction to the components of the grid architecture
and applications of grid computing. It expertly shows how grid
computing can be used in various areas, from computational
mechanics to risk management in financial institutions.
