Virtualizing a Multiprocessor Machine on a Network of Computers
Overview The fundamental goal of Grid computing is to seamlessly multiplex heterogeneous resources spread over multiple computing sites. One of major issues of the deployment of computational Grids is to provide execution environments that are customizable as well as safe. A customizable platform is necessary since the heterogeneity of underlying hardware/software configurations makes it difficult to run popular programs that may depend on specific operating systems or libraries. One approach for deploying computational Grids is to use classic operating system concept of a Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) as the basis for resource sharing. The VMM facilitates the deployment of computational Grids as follows.
