The grid computing coordinates resource sharing between different administrative domains in large scale, dynamic, and heterogeneous environment.Efficient and secure certificateless public key cryptography (CL-PKC) based authentication protocol for multi-domain grid environment is widely acknowledged as a challenging issue.Trust relationships management across domains is the main objective of authentication protocols in real grid computing environments.In this paper, we discuss the grid pairing-free certificateless two-party authenticated key agreement (GPC-AKA) protocol.Then, we provide a cross domain trust model for GPC-AKA protocol in grid computing environment.Moreover, we analysis the GPC-AKA protocol in multiple trust domains simulated environment using GridSim toolkit.
