Opal Toolkit -
"The Grid-based infrastructure enables large-scale scientific applications to be run on distributed resources and coupled in innovative ways. However, in practice, Grid resources are not very easy to use for the end-users who have to learn how to generate security credentials, stage inputs and outputs, access Grid-based schedulers, and install complex client software. There is an imminent need to provide transparent access to these resources so that the end-users are shielded from the complicated details, and free to concentrate on their domain science. Scientific applications wrapped as Web services alleviate some of these problems by hiding the complexities of the back-end security and computational infrastructure, only exposing a simple SOAP API that can be accessed programmatically by application-specific user interfaces. However, writing the application services that access Grid resources can be quite complicated, especially if it has to be replicated for every application. Towards that end, we have implemented Opal, which is a toolkit for wrapping scientific applications as Web services in a matter of hours, providing features such as scheduling, standards-based Grid security and data management in an easy-to-use and configurable manner.

Uncle Sam shells out $62m for 100GbE | The Gov Monitor
DOE says that its supercomputers are already running simulations that have datasets on the terabyte scale and that soon they will be chewing through datasets in the petabytes range. For instance, a climate model that spans past, present, and future at Lawrence Livermore National Lab currently spans 35 terabytes and is being used by over 2,500 researchers worldwide. An updated (and presumably finer-grained) climate model is expected to have a dataset in the range of 650 terabytes and the distributed archive of datasets related to this model is expected to be somewhere between 6 and 10 petabytes. To move such datasets around the ESnet network requires a lot more bandwidth and better protocols than Gigabit Ethernet.
Introduction to iRODS - IRODS
iRODS, which stands for i Rule Oriented Data Systems, is a project for building the next generation data management cyberinfrastructure. There are raging discussions in our group about what the i in iRODS means? There is no consensus and even individual a

Grids/Clouds comparison
Grids are (not?) dead.
It looks like we have to say goodbye to our good, old grids of the past -- at least to all those beautiful features and capabilities envisioned 10 years ago, when grids were supposed to evolve toward coordinated resource sharing and problem solving in dyn

What is the semantic grid?
The semantic grid uses metadata to describe information in the grid. Turning information into something more than just a collection of data means understanding the context, format, and significance of the data. The semantic Web follows this model by provi
