GRID Architecture through a Public Cluster
Abstract
Description
An architecture to enable some blocks consisting of several nodes in a public cluster connected to different grid collaborations is introduced. It is realized by inserting a web-service in addition to the standard Globus Toolkit. The new web-service performs two main tasks : authenticate the digital certificate contained in an incoming requests and forward it to the designated block. The appropriate block is mapped with the username of the block's owner contained in the digital certificate. It is argued that this algorithm opens an opportunity for any blocks in a public cluster to join various global grids.
