Active and Programmable Grids
Architectures and Components
Description:
Next Generation Girds architectures should
support dynamic, reconfigurable on-demand, secure and highly customizable
computing, storage and networking environments. In opposite to the existing grid
architectures relaying on rather static services, the new grids architecture
could exploit active, programmable grids (computational, storage, networking)
resources and components. The active and programmable grids architecture may be
seen as an extension of the active networks paradigm to grid systems. It aims at
providing easy introduction of new services by adding dynamic programmability to
the grid resources. Such approach has only recently received attention. The goal
of this workshop, to be held in conjunction with the ICCS 2004 conference, is to
bring together researchers interested in all aspects of active grid resources
services, and programmability concept application to a new grid middleware
design and implementation.
Suggested topics for submitted papers include, but are not limited:
Programmable grid models, architectures, components and environments
Peer-to-Peer Grid architectures and systems
Active Peer-to-Peer Grid
architecture and systems
Overlay Virtual Grids
Self-adapting,
self-configurable, self-manageable grids
Active and programmable grids
components and environments
Active grids management
Applications and
services for active grids, systems and environments
Implementation of active
grids infrastructure and middleware components
