Abstract: A thorough overview of the next generation in computing, this concise guide explores state-of-the-art grid projects, core grid technologies, and applications of the grid. It covers virtual organizations, scheduling algorithms, fault tolerance strategies, grid workflow management systems, and security technologies. The authors present several grid middlewares adopted in scientific applications, explain the mechanisms behind well-known grid projects, and apply the Monte Carlo method and PDEs to industrial problems in finance and computational mechanics. They also describe the components and installation of Globus Toolkits 4.0 and gLite.

TL;DR: In this paper, operating profiles for consumers of computing resources may be automatically determined based on an analysis of actual resource usage measurements and other operating metrics and assignment decisions may be made based on the profiles, and computing resources can be reallocated or oversubscribed if the profiles indicate that the consumers are unlikely to fully utilize the resources reserved for them.

- 28 Aug 2001
TL;DR: The term "the Grid" was coined in the mid-1990s to denote a proposed distributed computing infrastructure for advanced science and engineering but the term has also been conflated, at least in popular perception, to embrace everything from advanced networking to artificial intelligence.
