Date: January 2008
Type: White Paper
Rating: (0)

Overview: Addressing Windows-based grid computing is particularly important from the software industry’s viewpoint where interest in grids is emerging rapidly. Microsoft’s .NET Framework has become near-ubiquitous for implementing commercial distributed systems for Windows-based platforms, positioning it as the ideal platform for grid computing in this context. In this research paper the researchers present Alchemi, a .NET-based framework that provides the runtime machinery and programming environment required to construct enterprise/desktop grids and develop grid applications. It allows flexible application composition by supporting an object-oriented application programming model in addition to a file-based job model.
