Grid Computing

Introduction to Grid Technology Introduction to Grid Technology Notes
  As I am usually asked a simple explanation of what the grid is by my collegues and by people without a deep knowledge of distributed computation, the present notes are intended as a very brief and simple introduction to the basic grid concepts that may be needed by non-specialist users to access grid facilities.

Relational Grid Monitoring Architecture Relational Grid Monitoring Architecture Notes
  We describe R-GMA (Relational Grid Monitoring Architecture) which has been developed within the European DataGrid Project as a Grid Information and Monitoring System. Is is based on the GMA from GGF, which is a simple Consumer-Producer model. The special strength of this implementation comes from the power of the relational model.

DOE Science Grid DOE Science Grid Notes
  We propose a multi-laboratory Collaboratory Pilot aimed at defining, integrating, deploying, supporting, evaluating, refining, and developing (as necessary), the persistent Grid services needed for a scalable, robust, high-performance DOE Science Grid, thus creating the underpinnings for a DOE Science Grid Collaboratory Software Environment. This Grid will provide to applications and workflow systems persistent services for security, resource discovery, resource access, system monitoring, and so on.
