The LHC experiments are currently preparing for data acquisition in 2007 and because
of the large amount of required computing and storage resources, they decided to
embrace the grid paradigm. The LHC Computing Project (LCG) provides and operates a
computing infrastructure suitable for data handling, Monte Carlo production and
analysis.
While LCG offers a set of high level services,...

User and virtual organisation support in EGEE
Providing adequate user support in a grid environment is a very challenging task
due to the distributed nature of the grid. The variety of users and the variety of
Virtual Organizations (VO) with a wide range of applications in use add further to
the challenge.
The people asking for support are of various kinds. They can be generic grid...

EnginFrame is a Web-based innovative technology, by the Italian company Nice S.r.l.,
that enables access and exploitation of Grid-enabled applications and infrastructures.
It allows organizations to provide application oriented computing and data services
to both users (via Web browsers) and in-house or ISV applications (via SOAP/WSDL
based Web services), hiding all the complexity of the...

Grid computing is concerned with the virtualization, integration and
management of services and resources in a distributed, heterogeneous
environment that supports collections of users and resources across
traditional administrative and organizational domains.
One aspect of particular importance is Grid monitoring, that is the
activity of measuring significant Grid resource-related...

Grid environments require special grid-enabled applications capable of utilising
the underlying middleware services and infrastructures. Most Grid projects so far
have either developed new applications from scratch, or significantly re-engineered
existing ones in order to be run on their platforms. This practice is appropriate
only in the context where the applications are mainly aimed...

A broad range of projects from a spectrum of disciplines involve the development of
software born from the collaborative efforts of partners from geographically spread
locations. Such software is often the product of large-scale initiatives as new
technological models like the Grid are developed and new e-Infrastructures are
deployed to help solve complex, computational-intensive...

This paper discusses the concept of universal accessibility [1, 2] to the grid within
the context of selected application domains involving social interaction such as
e-hospital, collaborative engineering, enterprise, e-government, and the media. Based
on this discussion the paper proposes a metagrid infrastructure [3] as an approach to
provide universal accessibility to the...

Introduction
Contemporary grid environment achieved high level of maturity. With still
increasing number of various available resources, their optimal exploitation
becomes a significant problem. One of solutions to the problem are Virtual
Organizations (VO), which groups users and resources to solve a particular
problem or a set of problems. Each problem has its own specific...
