Grid computations require global access to massive data stores. To meet this need, the GridNFS project aims to provide scalable, high-performance, transparent, and secure wide-are...
Data replication permits a better network bandwidth utilization and minimizes the effect of latency in large-scale systems such as computing grids. However, the cost of maintainin...
With developments in Grid computing and Web based data storage the task of orchestrating computations is becoming ever more difficult. Identifying which of the available computati...
