A Networking Approach to Grid Computing

Buy
In February 1974 this author, as a math major at the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn,
(co)invented a now well-rooted but computationally complex concept of “hyperperfect
numbers” and he used an early form of grid computing—also known as
utility computing—to study this concept (see pages 83 and 86). His interest in grid
computing that grew out of this 1970s work lasted throughout the late 1980s and
into the early 2000s.

This is the first book that takes a comprehensive view of grid computing technology
from a networking perspective. Grid computing seamlessly integrates resources
and services across distributed, heterogeneous, dynamic “virtual organizations” that
span disparate administrative entities within a single enterprise and/or external entities
or service providers. The past decade has seen a significant level of government
funding directed at grid-related projects at NASA, national laboratories, supercomputer
centers, and academic institutions.

Up to now, grid computing has been largely of interest to researchers at mathematics
and computer science departments, national laboratories, informatics institutes,
and government-funded research laboratories, but it turns out that this technology
can be of value to Fortune 500 Companies looking to reduce their
run-the-engine costs. A fair number of such companies are already availing themselves
of the clear financial benefits; others may soon follow.

Commoditization of any sort of resource works to the clear advantage of the user
and it affords at-large macroeconomics benefits. In recent years, we have seen the
aggressive commoditization of all sorts of consumer entertainment electronics, personal
computers, and personal communication devices such as cellular telephones
and Personal Digital Assistants. This has resulted in a precipitous decrease in prices
(and costs) of these products.
