Grid Computing - by Simon C Lin & Eric Yen (Hardcover)

About the Book

Based on the 2007 International Symposium on Grid Computing, held in Taipei, Taiwan in March of 2007, this edited volume includes the latest grid solutions and research results in grid operations.

Book Synopsis

Grid Computing: International Symposium on Grid Computing (ISGC) 2007 is one of the most important annual events in Asia that brings together scientific contributions by world class researchers and scientists working in the Grid Computing field to exchange ideas, to present challenges, solutions and future development. The objective of this Symposium is to facilitate the information exchange as well as to explore the global collaboration and interoperation among various Grid projects. Based on the ISGC 2007, held in Taipei, Taiwan in March of 2007, this edited volume presents the latest grid solutions and research results in grid operations, grid middleware, biomedical operations, e-science applications and more.

Grid Computing: International Symposium on Grid Computing (ISGC) 2007 is designed for a professional audience, composed of researchers and practitioners in academia and industry. This book is also suitable for graduate-level students in computer science. It is also one of the most important sources of Grid Computing and e-Science development in the Asia Pacific region.

Review Quotes

From the reviews:

"This edited volume primarily contains project reports about computational grid activities, dominantly from Asia. ... This volume is a byproduct of the ISGC 2007 International Symposium on Grid Computing, held in Taipeh, Taiwan, and serves mostly as a record of that event. It may be of interest to analysts and students who are dealing with the Asian science infrastructure. The volume includes a list of contributors ... and the program committee, and a short index."
