“…However, we emphasize that many I-WAY components have remained in place after SC'95 and that follow-on systems are being designed and constructed. In particular, many of the concepts presented here are being extended and applied in the context of the Globus project, details of which can be found in other papers [13][14][15][16], and in technical specifications at http://www.globus.org/.…”

“…It is equipped with an API that affords developers with a high degree of control over the mappings between high-level communication requests and the underlying protocol requests. This is the Nexus API [15,16]. The Globus metacomputing directory service (MDS) maintains dynamically updated information on the underlying communications network, protocols, network bandwidth and latency.…”

SUMMARYCorporations are currently using computational GRIDs to improve their operations. Future GRIDs will allow an organization to take advantage of computational GRIDs without having to develop a custom inhouse solution. GRID resource providers (GRPs) make resources available on the GRID so that others may subscribe and use these resources. GRPs will allow companies to make use of a range of resources such as processing power or mass storage. However, simply providing resources is not enough to ensure the success of a computational GRID: Access to these resources must be controlled otherwise computational GRIDs will simply evolve to become a victim of their own success, unable to offer a suitable quality of service (QoS) to any user. The task of providing a standard querying mechanism for computational GRID environments (CGE) has already witnessed considerable work from groups such as the Globus project who have delivered the Metacomputing Directory Service (MDS), which provides a means to query devices attached to the GRID. This paper presents a review of existing resource discovery mechanisms within CGE.

“…Our current implementation includes Grid services provided by the Globus Project [14]. The Globus Toolkit provides an authentication service as part of the Grid Security Infrastructure (GSI) [16][17][18], an information service called the Metacomputing Directory Service (MDS) [19,20], a job submission service called the GRAM [15], and data storage/access service called Globus Access to Secondary Storage (GASS) [21]. Server objects are wrappers around corresponding Globus services.…”

SUMMARYThis paper reports on an ongoing research project aimed at designing and deploying a Common Object Resource Broker Architecture (CORBA) (ww.omg.org) Commodity Grid (CoG) Kit. The overall goal of this project is to enable the development of advanced Grid applications while adhering to state-of-the-art software engineering practices and reusing the existing Grid infrastructure. As part of this activity, we are investigating how CORBA can be used to support the development of Grid applications. In this paper, we outline the design of a CORBA CoG Kit that will provide a software development framework for building a CORBA 'Grid domain'. We also present our experiences in developing a prototype CORBA CoG Kit that supports the development and deployment of CORBA applications on the Grid by providing them access to the Grid services provided by the Globus Toolkit.
