> > > Grid is coming along. There are some interesting comments on the eScience site: "GRID technology is seen as the natural successor to the world wide web ..." http://www.escience-grid.org.uk/ Pilot projects: " more than twenty anticipated projects, eight are already underway and the rest will follow over the next six months" http://www.escience-grid.org.uk/docs/pilots.htm The eScience middleware is the same software used by NASA's intranet grid project. Apparently the next generation will support federated data, relational data and a variety of other data sources used for Grid Services. 'The software that will emerge will offer considerably more functionality than the present Grid middleware and will also be produced to industrial quality. In a recent interview, Irving Wladawsky-Berger made the commitment that 'all of our systems will be enabled to work with the grid, and all of our middleware will integrate with the software'. << I have found it quite hard to find anyone interested in writing about Grid for _developers_. This paper is a rather interesting discussion of OGSA, data access and data integration. It proposes, for example, using WSDL, XML schema types and namespace, and a Grid Service Handle to support the database service discovery process. It also proposes an approach to concurrency for grid database services doing queries over XML repositories: http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/grid-db/papers/dbtf.pdf
