Semantic Grid: Scientific Issues, Infrastructure, and Methodology (2005) [14 citations — 2 self]
Abstract:
Creating a new interconnection environment incorporating the Internet, sensor networks, mobile devices, and the interconnection semantics. Database theory and systems, a seminal development of information management, has profoundly affected computer applications for nearly 40 years. The Internet is a brilliant innovation, with unprecedented social and economic influence, but the lack of a theoretical foundation has limited its full potential. The Internet and the Web share four characteristics: rapid expansion of versatile resources and users, microstructured and macro-scale-free resource organization, inequality of information reputation (distribution) [1, 4], and humanunderstandable, not machine-understandable, semantics. These characteristics cause the difficulty in accurate, effective, efficient, and safe use of globally distributed resources. IT professionals are attempting to create a new interconnection environment by adding machineunderstandable semantics [2] for more efficiently sharing, manag-ing, coordinating, scheduling, and controlling distributed computing resources [3]. The Semantic Grid The Semantic Grid is an Internetcentered interconnection environment that can effectively organize, share, cluster, fuse, and manage globally distributed versatile
