A Gentle Introduction to Globus
نویسنده
چکیده
As computers become better connected across the globe, opportunities to create new programs utilizing geographically distant resources increase. New applications not possible without this computational grid include distributed supercomputing and intelligent sensing applications. However, di culties implementing this new class of applications exist: the computers on a grid are unreliably connected and not beholden to any single management policy. It is di cult to achieve performance on the grid. Users are currently required to have extraordinary knowledge about every element in the grid to make informed choices about resource allocation/management and programming paradigms. The Globus project provides infrastructure to addresses these issues. Globus is a complex entity; this document is a simple introduction to Globus and its architecture.

Childhood Laryngeal Dystonia Following Bilateral Globus Pallidus Abnormality: A Case Study and Review of Literature
Introduction:Dystonia is a disorder of movement caused by various etiologies. Laryngeal dystonia is caused by the spasm of laryngeal muscles. It is a disorder caused by vocal fold movement in which excessive adduction or abduction of the vocal folds occurs during speech. The pathophysiology of this type of dystonia is not fully known. Some researchers have suggested that basal ganglia structure...

Background: Inlet patch (IP) lesion is the presence of gastric columnar epithelial tissue outside of the stomach. Symptoms such as a lump in the throat, chronic cough, laryngitis, or other mouth-throat symptoms may be IP-related only and have no other abnormalities. This study aimed to determine the relationship between globus sensation and structural disorder of Inlet Patch in patients with ga...
متن کاملSlicing Planar Grid Diagrams: a Gentle Introduction to Bordered Heegaard Floer Homology
We describe some of the algebra underlying the decomposition of planar grid diagrams. This provides a useful toy model for an extension of Heegaard Floer homology to 3-manifolds with parametrized boundary. This paper is meant to serve as a gentle introduction to the subject, and does not itself have immediate topological applications.
