Globus

Globus is a used to construct calculation mesh of open architecture, open standard projects. Globus Toolkit Globus Toolkit from project. Is an open source mesh foundation platform, based on open structure, open service resources and repositories, and to support the grid and the grid application, the purpose is for the construction of grid application provides middleware services, and program libraries. Globus Toolkit has more unified international standards, help to integrate existing resources, also easy maintenance and upgrading. Now, some important company, including I BM and Microsoft, etc. Are all Globus Toolkit publicly declared support. Most current grid programs are based on GlobusToolkit provided by the agreement and service construction. Globus of resource management, security, information services and data management of grid computing key theory research and provide the basic mechanism and interface the project already developed in various platforms can run on grid computing tool software (Toolkit), support grid computing and the grid application of a set of service and repositories. Help planning and the establishment of large grid experimental platform, suitable for the development of large grid system operation of large application. At present, the Globus toolkit mechanism has been used worldwide hundreds of sites and dozens of major Grid juice calculate project: NASA meshes (NASA IPG) and Europe Data Grid (Data Grid) and the national technical meshes (NTG) etc.
