Building Computational Communities from Federated Resources

We describe the design and the implementation in Java and Jini of a Computational Community, which supports the federation of resources from different organisations. Resources from the local Administrative Domain are published in a Jini space to form a Computational Community. Different access control policies can be applied to the same resource in different Computational Communities. We show how this architecture can be extended through the addition of an Application Mapper and Resource Broker to build a computational economy.
