X Abstract

Currently, Grid research as well as distributed database research deals with data replication but both tackle the problem from different points of view. The aim of this paper is to outline both approaches and try to find commonalities between the two worlds in order to have a most efficient Data Grid that manages data stored in object-oriented databases. Our target object-oriented database management system is Objectivity/DB which is currently the database of choice in some existing High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments aswell as in next generation experiments at CERN. The characteristics of Data Grids are described,especially within the High Energy Physics community, and needs for Data Grids are defined. The Globus toolkit is the Grid middle-ware on which we base our discussions on Grid research.

RIS BibTeX
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
