Abstract

Data Grids are being built across the world as the next generation data handling systems to manage peta-bytes of inter organizational data and storage space. A data grid (datagrid) is a logical name space consisting of storage resources and digital entities that is created by the cooperation of autonomous organizations and its users based on the coordination of local and global policies. Data Grid Management Systems (DGMSs) provide services for the confluence of organizations and management of inter-organizational data and resources in the datagrid.The objective of the tutorial is to provide an introduction to the opportunities and challenges of this emerging technology. Novices and experts would benefit from this tutorial. The tutorial would cover introduction, use cases, design philosophies, architecture, research issues, existing technologies and demonstrations. Hands on sessions for the participants to use and feel the existing technologies could be provided based on the availability of internet connections.
