Abstract

This paper introduces the existing connectivity and interoperability issues of Clouds, Grids and Clusters, and provides solutions to overcome these issues. The paper proposes several possible solution variants how to pool Cloud resources for executing bag of tasks type jobs. It presents two implementations based on BOINC and Condor. It details performance measurement results obtained by executing parameter study type applications using the two implementations.
