2004 Stories

Here are some stories from 2004 about Grid computing projects that are based primarily on components in the GRIDS Center Software Suite.

  • A ClusterWorld article on the Biomedical Infomatics Research Network (BIRN): "Harnessing the Power of the Globus Toolkit." (2004)

  • An InfoWorld article describes NMI efforts in developing and hardening core middleware for research and education. The story cites successful applications of GRIDS software such as  the Globus Toolkit and Condor-G.  (6/2004)

  • NSF announced availability of NMI-R5 (including the GRIDS Center Software Suite) with a news release describing middleware-based application successes for research and education.  (5/2004)

  • Members of GRIDS contributed to a pair of new papers describing, respectively, significant developments in the Grid3 and NEESgrid deployment projects.  (4/2004)

  • A recent "On the Grid" column in ClusterWorld magazine gives some helpful rules of thumb for setting up your own Grid. Other PDFs are archived three months after publication.  (4/2004)

  • The NEESgrid integration project within NSF's Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation conducted a successful experiment with colleagues in Japan, creating new opportunities for international collaboration.  (4/2004)

  • The second International Summer School on Grid Computing will be held in Naples, Italy, July 18-30.  Leading experts will lecture on middleware, deployment and applications for students, who will perform hands-on practical exercises.  (3/2004)

  • WIRED has a lengthy feature about progress in the large-scale Grid deployment by CERN's Large Hadron Collider project, which is preparing for massive amount of data that the high energy physics instrument will produce.  (3/2004)

  • IEEE Distributed Systems Online interviewed the GRIDS Center's  Ian Foster regarding the recently announced WS-Resource Framework, a set of specifications hastening the convergence of Grid and Web services.  (2/2004)

  • EWeek offers analysis of Grid opportunities and obstacles, citing the NMI-based ROCKS cluster demo at SC03 as evidence that grids are increasingly simple to install.  (2/2004)

  • LinuxJournal lists four reasons that Linux could become the basis for ubiquitous Grid computing.  (2/2004)

  • GRIDS co-sponsored the highly successful GlobusWORLD 2004, the premier conference on Grid computing.  A wealth of presentation materials has been posted in the conference's program section, and the news section has numerous stories centering on a major announcement about the new WS-Resource Framework.  (2/2004)

  • Announcement of the WS-Resource Framework prompted extensive press coverage, including InfoWorld, CNet, Internet News, Cover Pages and Information Week. For related press coverage, see the GlobusWORLD news archive.  (1/2004)

  • IBM and Charles Schwab announced results of their joint research and develoment efforts to apply Grid technologies to financial services problems.  (1/2004)
