Grid Computing
Making the Global Infrastructure a Reality
Geoffrey Fox, Anthony J.G. Hey, Fran Berman
Résumé
A number of corporations, professional groups, university consortiums, and other groups have developed or are developing frameworks and software for managing grid computing projects. The European Community (EU) is sponsoring a project for a grid for high-energy physics, earth observation, and biology applications. In the United States, the National Technology Grid is prototyping a computational grid for infrastructure and an access grid for people. Sun Microsystems offers Grid Engine software. Described as a distributed resource management tool, Grid Engine allows engineers at companies like Sony and Synopsys to pool the computer cycles on up to 80 workstations at a time.
- "the Grid" is a very hot topic generating broad interest from research and industry (e.g. IBM, Platform, Avaki, Entropia, Sun, HP)
- Grid architecture enables very popular e-Science projects like the Genome project which demand global interaction and networking
- In recent surveys over 50% of Chief Information Officers are expected to use Grid technology this year
- Features contributions from the major players in the field
- Covers all aspects of grid technology from motivation to applications
- Provides an extensive state-of-the-art guide in grid computing
- This is essential reading for researchers in Computing and Engineering, physicists, statisticians, engineers and mathematicians and IT policy makers.
