Identifies Recent Technological Developments Worldwide The field of
grid computing has made rapid progress in the past few years,
evolving and developing in almost all areas, including concepts,
philosophy, methodology, and usages. Grid Computing:
Infrastructure, Service, and Applications reflects the recent
advances in this field, covering the research aspects that involve
infrastructure, middleware, architecture, services, and
applications. Grid Systems Across the Globe The first section of
the book focuses on infrastructure and middleware and presents
several national and international grid systems. The text
highlights China Research and Development environment Over
Wide-area Network (CROWN), several ongoing cyberinfrastructure
efforts in New York State, and Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE),
which is co-funded by the European Commission and the world's
largest multidisciplinary grid infrastructure today. The second
part of the book discusses recent grid service advances. The
authors examine the UK National Grid Service (NGS), the concept of
resource allocation in a grid environment, OMIIBPEL, and the
possibility of treating scientific workflow issues using techniques
from the data stream community. The book describes an SLA model,
reviews portal and workflow technologies, presents an overview of
PKIs and their limitations, and introduces PIndex, a peer-to-peer
model for grid information services. New Projects and Initiatives
The third section includes an analysis of innovative grid
applications. Topics covered include the WISDOM initiative,
incorporating flow-level networking models into grid simulators,
system-level virtualization, grid usage in the high-energy physics
environment in the LHC project, and the Service Oriented HLA RTI
(SOHR) framework. With a comprehensive summary of past advances,
this text is a window into the future of this nascent technology,
forging a path for the next generation of cyberinfrastructure
developers.
