Scientists are increasingly utilizing Grids to manage large data sets and execute scientific experiments on distributed resources. Scientific workflows are used as means for modeli...
The use of web services as the basis for grid middleware has allowed scientists to wrap legacy applications as services in order to provide their capabilities to grid users. Howev...
With the increasing use of web services, many new challenges concerning data security are becoming critical. Data or applications can now be outsourced to powerful remote servers, ...
The process of design search and optimisation is characterised by its computationally intensive operations, which produce a problem well suited to Grid computing. Here we present a...
