Abstract

Biometric technology is critical to the rapidly growing suite of civilian applications. In this paper, we offer a broader scope of biometrics by a novel concept, the biometrics grid. The architecture of biometrics grid aims to overcome/resolve three main problems of existing biometric technology using the grid computing: 1) the need for cooperation in different fields, 2) duplicated works and 3) the consideration of application demands in different levels. The proposed architecture of biometrics grid provides a Web portal based virtual environment as well as features like biometric applications meeting QoS goals. Experimental results are given in order to show the feasibility to deploy the idea of grid computing in biometric applications.
