Grid Middleware and Services : Challenges and Solutions
This book aims to strengthen and advance scientific and technological excellence in the area of Grid Computing. The main focus in this volume is on Grid middleware and service level agreement.Grid middleware and Grid services are two pillars of grid computing systems and applications. This book includes high-level contributions by leading researchers in both areas and presents current solutions together with future challenges. This volume includes sections on knowledge and data management on grids, Grid resource management and scheduling, Grid information, resource and workflow monitoring services, and service level agreements.
Grid computing : Experiment management, Tool Integration, and Scientific Workflows
Grid computing has become a topic of significant interest in the scientific community as a means of enabling application developers to aggregate resources scattered around the globe for solving large-scale scientific problems. This monograph addresses four critical software development aspects for the engineering and execution of applications on parallel and Grid architectures.
From P2P to Web Services and Grids : Peers in a Client/Server World
Provides an overview of peer-to-peer (P2P) technologies that have revolutionized the way we think about distributed computing and the internet. This book compares these technologies to alternative solutions, most notably web services and Grid computing but also other technologies, such as client/server based systems and agent technologies.
Architecture of computing systems - ARCS 2007 ; 20th International Conference, Zurich, Switzerland, March 12-15, 2007, Proceedings
The ARCS is reporting hi- quality results in computer architecture and operating systems research.It is also represent a - namic, evolving community that closely follows new research trends and topics. ARCS has evolved towards a strong focus on s- tem aspects of pervasive computing and self-organization techniques (organic and autonomic computing).
Advances in grid and pervasive computing ; 1st International Conference, GPC 2006, Taichung, Taiwan, May 3-5, 2006, Proceedings
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Grid and Pervasive Computing, GPC 2006, held in Taichung, Taiwan, in May 2006.The 64 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 267 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on grid scheduling, peer-to-peer computing, Web/grid services, high performance computing, ad hoc networks, wireless sensor networks, grid applications, data grid, pervasive applications, semantic Web, semantic grid, grid load balancing, wireless ad hoc/sensor networks, and mobile computing.
