An Introduction to the Globus Toolkit
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Globus toolkit is a grid middleware being developed at the Institute of Sciences Information of the University of Southern California and at Argonne National Laboratories. In this paper we briefly introduce the core services and the functionalities provided; in particular we address the Globus Security Infrastructure, the resource management and the Grid Information Service.

A Graphical Modeling Environment for the Generation of Workflows for the Globus Toolkit
Grid computing aims at managing resources in a heterogeneous distributed environment. The Globus Toolkit provides a set of components that can be used to build applications that function in a grid computing system. Presently, applications are typically handcrafted either by using an Application Programming Interface (API) interacting through a set of command line interfaces, or by using a set o...
متن کاملExtending Globus to support Multicast Transmission
The Globus Toolkit is an open source software toolkit that has become the de-facto standard for middleware used to build Grid services. Globus XIO is an eXtensible Input/Output library for Globus. It provides a POSIX-like API to swappable I/O implementations – essentially “I/O plugins” for Globus. TCP-XM is a modified TCP engine that supports multicast transmission. We have taken this protocol ...

متن کاملTOG & JOSH: Grid scheduling with Grid Engine & Globus
TOG and JOSH are two fully Globus-enabled grid scheduling tools based around Grid Engine, the Globus Toolkit and a variety of data grid technologies. These tools were originally developed by the EPCC Sun Data and Compute Grids (Sun DCG) project. This paper describes these tools and their use in e-Science projects in the UK and abroad. 1. Grid Engine & Globus Grid Engine [1] is an open source di...
