Smart grids have received much attention in recent years in order to optimally manage the resources, transmission and consumption of electric power.In these grids, one of the most important communication services is the multicast service.…
In this article we describe the problems and solutions related to the integration of desktop grid middleware in a cloud, in this case the open source SlapOS cloud. We focus on the issues about recipes that describe the integration and the…
The European DataTAG project has taken a major step towards making the concept of a worldwide computing Grid a reality. In collaboration with the companion U.S. project iVDGL, DataTAG has realized an intercontinental testbed spanning Europe…
We describe the architecture and initial implementation of the next-generation of Grid Data Management Middleware in the EU DataGrid (EDG) project. The new architecture stems out of our experience and the users requirements gathered during…
The continuous increase in performance requirements, for both scientific computation and industry, motivates the need of a powerful computing infrastructure. The Grid appeared as a solution for inexpensive execution of heavy applications in…
A few grid-computing tools are available for public use. However, such systems are usually quite complex and require several man-months to set up. In case the user wishes to set-up an ad-hoc grid in a small span of time, such tools cannot…
WorldGrid is an intercontinental testbed spanning Europe and the US integrating architecturally different Grid implementations based on the Globus toolkit. It has been developed in the context of the DataTAG and iVDGL projects, and…
Regional planning processes and associated redevelopment projects can be complex due to the vast amount of diverse data involved. However, all of this data shares a common geographical reference, especially in the renaturation of former…
It is time for the legacy financial infrastructure to seamlessly connect with modern, decentralized infrastructure. Although it is increasingly evident that decentralized infrastructure for finance (namely distributed ledgers) will coexist…
In "Grids" and "collaboratories," we find distributed communities of resource providers and resource consumers, within which often complex and dynamic policies govern who can use which resources for which purpose. We propose a new approach…
Grids include heterogeneous resources, which are based on different hardware and software architectures or components. In correspondence with this diversity of the infrastructure, the execution time of any single job, as well as the total…
In this paper we introduce a new way to deal with Grid portals referring to our implementation. L-GRID is a light portal to access the EGEE/EGI Grid infrastructure via Web, allowing users to submit their jobs from a common Web browser in a…
Computational grids that couple geographically distributed resources are becoming the de-facto computing platform for solving large-scale problems in science, engineering, and commerce. Software to enable grid computing has been primarily…
