Abstract

With the advancements of computer system and communication technologies, Grid computing can be seen as the popular technology bringing about significant revolution for the next generation distributed computing application. As regards general users, a grid middleware is complex to setup and necessitates a steep learning curve. How to access to the grid system transparently from the point of view of users turns into a critical issue then. Therefore, various challenges may arise from the incomprehensive system design as coordinating existing computing resources for the sake of achieving pervasive grid environment. The authors are going to investigate into the current research works of pervasive grid as well as analyze the most important factors and components for constructing a pervasive grid system here. Finally, in order to facilitate the efficiency in respect of teaching and research within a campus, they would like to introduce their pervasive grid platform.
