Grid computing is rapidly emerging as the dominant paradigm for wide-area distributed and parallel computing. This book examines key core technologies that cover scheduling and fault tolerance, as well as the generation of data and algorithms. Using a tutorial approach, each of the ten chapters presents a state-of-the-art concept illustrated by an example of particular research in the field. After an overview of grid computing, leading contributors focus on presenting new and...
More DescriptionGrid computing is rapidly emerging as the dominant paradigm for wide-area distributed and parallel computing. This book examines key core technologies that cover scheduling and fault tolerance, as well as the generation of data and algorithms. Using a tutorial approach, each of the ten chapters presents a state-of-the-art concept illustrated by an example of particular research in the field. After an overview of grid computing, leading contributors focus on presenting new and innovative research findings. This volume distills the overabundance of literature on grid computing to provide ready access to the most relevant.
