Perspectives on grid computing

2013

Internet technology is too much popular now a day and due to the availability of high performance computer and network technology at low cost change the view of using computer and internet. Grid computing is conceptually not like electric grids. In electric grid we can just link to the outlets of an infrastructure and we don’t need to know from where and how we are getting electricity. Grid computing led to the possibility of using distributed computers as a single large virtual network that allow sharing and computer power and data storage capacity over the internet. This paper gives an idea about grid definition, its security challenges and issues. It covers about grid characteristics, types of grids, grid middleware. It gives an overview of grid security followed by challenges in grid.

Cloud Computing represents a novel and promising approach for implementing scalable ICT systems for individual-, communities-, and business-use relying on the latest achievements of diverse research areas, such as Grid computing, Service oriented computing, business processes, and virtualization. From the technological point of view Grid computing is considered as the most related predecessor technology of Cloud computing. Although, Cloud and Grid computing differ in many aspects, as for example, in the general idea of the provision of computational resource, which is in Clouds commercial based and in Grids community based, there are many similarities. In this paper we investigate the similarities and differences between Clouds and Grids by evaluating two successful projects, namely for the provision of native hight performance copmputing applications as Grid workflows and for the self-management of Cloud infrastructures.

After 1990's there is a huge change in the world of computing. The concept of parallel computing is a combination of hardware and software which allows flexibility and seamless service oriented network. This computing allows sharing of resources from distributed and diverse locations. Grid computing systems are complex and dynamic. Grid has appeared as a new approach to high performance distributed computing infrastructure. Grid has identified a new way of managing and organizing computer networks. It's mainly for resource sharing. The aim of grid computing approach is to larger scale computation. The geographically distributed computational resources are collaborated with a grid view as a virtual computer. This paper presents the various types of grid, grid architecture load balancing, fault tolerance and challenges in grid computing.

Concepts, Methodologies, Tools and Applications

Cloud computing is a new kind of computing model and technology introduced by industry leaders in recent years. Nowadays, it is the center of attention because of various excellent promises. However, it brings some challenges and arguments among computing leaders about the future of computing models and infrastructure. For example, whether it is going to be in place of other technologies in computing like grid or not, is an interesting question. In this chapter, we address this issue by considering the original grid architecture. We show how cloud can be put in the grid architecture to complement it. As a result, we face some shadow challenges to be addressed.

In the last few years there has been a rapid exponential increase in computer processing power, data storage and communication. But still there are many complex and computation intensive problems, which cannot be solved by supercomputers. These problems can only be met with a vast variety of heterogeneous resources. The increased use and popularity of the Internet and the availability of high-speed networks have gradually changed the way we do computing. These technologies have enabled the cooperative use of a wide variety of geographically distributed resources as a single more powerful computer. This new method of pooling resources for solving large-scale problems is called as grid computing. Grid computing is a form of distributed computing in which an organization (business, university, etc.) uses its existing computers (desktop and/or cluster nodes) to handle its own long-running computational tasks. Grid computing combines computers from multiple administrative domains to reach a common goal, to solve a single task, and may then disappear just as quickly. Grid computing is managed by Global Grid Forum (GGF). Grid includes various protocols, topologies, standards and layers for implementing grid related applications. This paper describes the concepts underlying grid computing.

Cloud Computing has become another buzzword after Web 2.0. However, there are dozens of different definitions for Cloud Computing and there seems to be no consensus on what a Cloud is. On the other hand, Cloud Computing is not a completely new concept; it has intricate connection to the relatively new but thirteen-year established Grid Computing paradigm, and other relevant technologies such as utility computing, cluster computing, and distributed systems in general. This paper strives to compare and contrast Cloud Computing with Grid Computing from various angles and give insights into the essential characteristics of both.

Cloud computing has evolved in this decade and become an intriguing field of study for researchers. Platforms and architectures are continuing to be developed, and every couple of years, new cloud computing techniques are discovered, with some of them deemed as revolutionary breakthroughs. One of the most amazing aspects of cloud computing is that researchers can develop a service and deliver it to users most likely through the Internet, without the need for an upgrade to the user side hardware. Cloud computing is the most famous but not the only paradigm to offer tremendous compute capability. Another form of comparable computing is grid computing which also offers the capability to process data in less time. This survey reviews both grid and cloud computing in order to clarify the understanding of applications, architecture, and topologies. We analyse three basic delivery models for cloud computing. Finally, we explore about link multiple clouds network, also known as inter-cloud or cloud of clouds.

Grid computing is a computer network, which every machine's assets are shared with every other machine. The goal is to produce the trickery of a simple (through huge and commanding) self-handling virtual system out of a huge group of linked heterogeneous systems, which sharing numerous groupings resources. Regularization of communications among heterogeneous systems generated and Internet explosion. Developing regularization used for sharing resources, alongside with convenience of upper bandwidth are pouring feasibly alike huge evolutionary phase. Previous limited existences here has stayed a quick exponential rise in system processing power, data storing and communication. However quiet here are numerous difficult and calculation rigorous complications, those can't be unraveled by mainframes. The difficulties can individual encountered through huge variation of unrelated resources. Attractiveness of the Internet, accessibility of high-speed networks take progressively transformed a manner of computing. The fresh technique that sharing resources for large-scale complications can solved through grid computing. This paper designates the theories fundamental grid computing.

Grid computing is an emerging concept which is driving the computing industry today. With the advent of a grid, computing will become a utility on tap just like water or power. Users in fields like business process re-engineering, accounting, finance and low cost non applied research, are ready to take advantage of grid computing. However going by the feedback of sample respondents, if grid computing is to be widely accepted, it still needs to overcome certain roadblocks both at technical level like security issues and at conceptual level like sharing of systems, considered personal till now. A feasibility study of installing a grid in a small community with wide bandwidth connectivity shows it to be a feasible and useful proposition.
