A Do-it-Yourself Framework for Grid Computing: Learn to Build Your Own Grid Computing Application Using Open Source Tools

Overview Large-scale grid computing frameworks can be successfully used to build computational grid infrastructures, but their sophistication can also be a barrier for software designers experimenting with entry-level grid computing. This paper uses a Java custom ClassLoader, a Tomcat servlet container, and the Axis SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) implementation to demonstrate a simple-to-use framework that supports minimal grid requirements, including machine independence, abstracted compute-task distribution and execution, and a secure, scalable infrastructure.
