Overview of work being done at
the Grid Research Centre, based at the University of Calgary.
One project, a collaboration with HP Labs, explores issues
related to monitoring grid environments. The aim is to describe
a framework in which monitoring sources can be discovered and
programmatically combined for use by high level tools. A second
project involves creating a data replication management system
using WSRF standards that is designed to work with bandwidth-on-demand
lightpath networks.

This presentation from the 2005 HP-CAST
grid collaboration meeting in Krako addresses the need for
a less complex solution than Globus, and suggests that a 'grid
lite' might be the answer.

This presentation describes how OurGrid meets
the needs of smaller and mid-sized research labs throughout
the world in collaborative computing. OurGrid is a peer-to-peer
grid solution that is easy to install and configure, and one
that allows labs to freely join the system without any human
intervention.
