Abstract

Grids tie together distributed storage systems and execution platforms into globallyaccessible resources. Data Grids provide collection management and global namespacesfor organizing data objects that reside within a grid. Knowledge-based grids provideconcept spaces for discovering relevant data objects. In a knowledge-based grid, dataobjects are discovered by mapping from scientific domain concepts, to the attributes usedwithin a data grid collection, to the digital objects residing in an archival storage system.These concepts will be explored in the context of large-scale storage in the web, andillustrated based on infrastructure under development at the San Diego SupercomputerCenter.
