Abstract

Computational grids present many obstacles to their effective exploitation by non-trivial applications. We present a grid middleware, implemented using Java and Jini, that eliminates these obstacles through the intelligent use of meta-data relating to the structure, behaviour and performance of an application. We demonstrate how different problem sizes and selection criteria (minimum execution time or minimum cost) utilise different implementations for the optimal solution of a set of linear equations.
