An Experimental Testbed for Grid Computing
Overview The aim of grid computing is to provide an environment, which allows easy, ubiquitous access to geographically distributed, heterogeneous computing resources. The effective coordination of such a collection of resources is not a trivial task. The machines comprising the grid and the connections that link them are commonly shared with other grid users and are rarely dedicated to usage from the grid so their background utilization and hence effective capacity is constantly fluctuating. This paper implements a powerful grid computing testbed, which allows repeatable controllable emulation of arbitrary grid environments in order that grid application and resource scheduler performance may be systematically analysed.
