In this paper we discuss architectural aspects of middleware for grid computing based on an infrastructure of distributed clusters and/or distributed services, an access portal for a demonstration project in progress, and also some security issues. We observe, in recent works, activities in the direction of open service architectures for grid services and for web services. We also see advantages in adding facilities offered by distributed object computing environments with their interoperable references and services. Open service architectures introduce the possibility of composing structures of nested services. Additionally we discuss some security issues for instance intrusion detection. 1.
