<P>The integration and convergence of state-of-the-art technologies in the grid have enabled more flexible, automatic, and complex grid services to fulfill industrial and commercial needs, from the LHC at CERN to meteorological forecasting systems. <STRONG>Fundamentals of Grid Computing: Theory, Algorithms and Technologies</STRONG> discusses how the novel technologies of semantic web and workflow have been integrated into the grid and grid services. </P><br/><br/><P></P><br/><br/><P>The book explains how distributed mutual exclusion algorithms offer solutions to transmission and control processes. It also addresses the replication problem in data grids with limited replica storage and the problem of data management in grids. After comparing utility, grid, autonomic, and cloud computing, the book presents efficient solutions for the reliable execution of applications in computational grid platforms. It then describes a fault tolerant distributed scheduling algorithm for large-scale dist
