Maestro-VC: On-Demand Secure Cluster Computing Using Virtualization
Overview On-demand computing is the name given to technology which enables an infrastructure where computing cycles are treated as a commodity, and where such a commodity can be accessed upon request. In this way the goals of on-demand computing overlap with and are similar to those of Grid computing: both enable the pooling of global computing resources to solve complex computational problems. Recently, virtualization has emerged as a viable mechanism for improving the utilization of commodity computing hardware. This field has seen much research for potential applications in the field of distributed and Grid computing.
