Grid Computing: A Research Monograph

The book traces the evolution and progress of models of computation, from clusters to grid computing. The interesting journey of evolution of these models of computation in the past ten years at the distributed and object systems lab at iit, madras reflects the various developments and breakthroughs in the field. The book includes among several other topics:anonymous remote computing (arc): a programming model that provides a platform to enable sequential and parallel loads to coexist in a cluster environment.anonymous remote computation and communication (arcc): an extinction of arc to provide inter-task communication using the concept of distributed pipes (dp)p-corba: a part of the pivotal work to marry the two areas of object orientation and parallel computing over clusters.moset: an anonymous remote mobile cluster computing paradigm. Moset enables mobile devices (mainly laptop kind of devices) to be integrated into the cluseter.it includes a cd containing software developed for the
