Grid Computing requires the use of software that can divide and
farm out pieces of a program to as many as several thousand
computers. This book explores processes and techniques needed to
create a successful Grid infrastructure. Leading researchers in
Europe and the US look at the development of specialist tools and
environments which will encourage the convergence of the parallel
programming, distributed computing and data management
communities.
Specific topics covered include:
- An overview of structural and behavioural properties of
Computer Grid applications
- Discussion of alternative programming techniques
- Case studies displaying the potential of Computer Grids in
solving real problems
This book is unique in its outline of the needs of Computational
Grids both in integration of high-end resources using OGSA/Globus,
and the loose integration of Peer-2-Peer/Entropia/United Devices.
Readers will gain an insight on the limitations of existing
approaches as well as the standardisation activities currently
taking place.
