Workshop on Grid Computing

Grid Computing & Applications

The last decade has seen a substantial increase in commodity computer and network performance. Increasingly, computing addresses collaboration, cycle and data sharing and other modes of interaction involving distributed resources. Grid computing is an emerging technology that enables large-scale sharing of widely distributed resources and coordinated problem-solving and collaboration between groups of scientists.

This workshop provides a forum for discussion among researchers, developers, and users of grid computing from academia, business and industry. The workshop focuses on grid computing and its applications in science and engineering. Original papers concerned with both theory and practice are solicited. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• Problem solving environments, workflow and development tools
• Grid programming models, languages, debugging and compilation techniques for grid computing
• Grid Tools, Middleware & Fabrics
• Scheduling & resource management
• Grid applications and system solutions in science and engineering
• Novel uses of grid computing concepts and technologies
• Grid Security
