National Workshop on Globus Toolkit and Research Directions in Computational Grids on September 17,18 & 19, 2009.

Welcome

National Workshop on Globus Toolkit and Research Directions in Computational Grids will be held on September 17,18 & 19, 2009. Grid Computing is emerging as a next-generation parallel and distributed computing platform. The research area of Grid Computing is making a rapid progress, owing to the increasing necessity of computation in resolving complex applications. Grid middleware provides users with seamless computing ability and uniform access to resources in heterogeneous Grid environment.

This programme aims to provide the participants, the knowledge about Grid architecture and service. The course also addresses the research issues in the realm of Computational Grids and will focus more on giving hands-on experience to work in Grid middleware (GT 4).

Topics

The topics to be covered in the Workshop include the following:

* Introduction to Computational Grids
* Globus Middleware and its various components
* Globus installation and configuration
* Testing
* Security aspects of Computational Grids

This programme also addresses the research issues in the Computational Grids and will focus more on giving hands-on experience to work in GT 4.
