Grid computing in Taiwan
Chao‐Tung Yang, William Cheng‐Chung Chu · 2004
Grid computing focuses on aggregating resources (e.g., processor cycles, disk storage and contents) from a large-scale computing environment. It intends to deliver high-performance distributed platforms for computationand/or data-intensive applications. In this paper, we study the enabling techniques for Grid computing for high-performance computing. Our goals are to: (1) understand the design of these key components; (2) set up a Grid computing platform; (3) learn how to create Grid-enabled high-performance applications; and (4) share experiences on constructing such platforms and applications from the status of Taiwan.
