The
authors, PhD students at the Stanford University, present a
prototype of the present widely popular search engine –
Google. The authors described Google as a scalable search
engine which aimed to provide high quality search results
over a rapidly growing World Wide Web. Several technical
details such as page rankings, anchor text, and proximity
information have been explored. This is the classical paper
that gave the world a new sense of searching the World Wide
Web.

The
authors, researchers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory,
focus on the multifaceted use of the OAI-PMH in
a repository architecture designed to store digital
assets at their research library, and to make the stored assets
available in a uniform way to various downstream applications.
The lightweight OAI-PMH protocol, which plays a prominent role,
makes the propose approach attractive.

The
dbXML Group, has developed dbXML as a Native XML Database.
It is capable of string and indexing collections of XML
documents in both native and mapped forms for highly
efficient querying, transformation, and retrieval. In
addition to these capabilities, the server may also be
extended to provide business logic in the form of scripts,
classes and triggers.

The
authors, researchers at the Argonne National Laboratory &
University of Chicago and University of Southern California,
define the field of Grid computing. They shed light on the
virtual organizations, and the specific issues associated with
such a structure. They present a Grid architecture, which they
claim is open and extensible. The need for defining standard
protocols is rightly emphasized. Finally, they relate Grid
concepts to many other popular contemporary technologies.

The
author, senior scientist at the Argonne National Laboratory
& University of Chicago, analyzes a very important question
in this document. He provides a three-point checklist that
according to him define exactly what a Grid is. He justifies
that for a system to classify as a Grid, it should have
coordinated resources that are not subject to centralized
control, use standard, open, general-purpose protocols and
interfaces and should deliver nontrivial qualities of service.

This
document provides information to the community regarding the
specification of the Open Grid Services Infrastructure
(OGSI). Building on both Grid and Web services technologies,
the Open Grid Services Infrastructure (OGSI) defines
mechanisms for creating, managing, and exchanging
information among entities called Grid services. They also
provide a full specification of the behaviors and Web
Service Definition Language (WSDL) interfaces that define a
Grid service.
The Globus Toolkit is an open source
software toolkit used for building grids. It is being
developed by the Globus Alliance and many others all over
the world. A growing number of projects and companies are
using the Globus Toolkit to unlock the potential of grids
for their cause.
This
document is intended as a starting point for anyone who is
going to program grid-based applications using the Globus
Toolkit 3 (GT3). We also hope experienced GT3 programmers
will find it useful to learn about the more advanced aspects
of GT3 and Grid Services.
The
goal of this Redpaper is to provide the critical jump-start
for someone who wants to learn about GT3 but has little or
no experience with prior Globus releases or grid computing
in general. It show you how to implement a GT3 demo or a
proof-of-concepts scenario. Also, it illustrates the
high-level concepts of the toolkit components and the
overall architecture.
