Construct a Grid Computing Environment on Multiple Linux PC Clusters

Chuan-Lin Lai, Chao‐Tung Yang · 2003

Internet computing and Grid technologies promise to change the way we tackle complex problems. They will enable large-scale aggregation and sharing of computational, data and other resources across institutional boundaries. And harnessing these new technologies effectively will transform scientific disciplines ranging from high-energy physics to the life sciences. In this paper, a grid computing environment is proposed and constructed on multiple Linux PC Clusters by using Globus Toolkit (GT) and SUN Grid Engine (SGE). The experimental results are also conducted by using the pi problem, prime problem, and matrix multiplication to demonstrate the performance.
