Life sciences research is based on individuals, often with diverse skills, assembled into
research groups. These groups use their specialist expertise to address scientific problems …

In this paper, we discuss a real‐world application scenario that uses three distinct types of
workflow within the Triana problem‐solving environment: serial scientific workflow for the …

An overview of the Triana Problem Solving Environment is provided–with a particular focus
on the GAP application-level interface, for integration with Grid Computing and Peer-to-Peer …

" From P2P to Web Servicesnbsp; and Grids" nbsp; provides a comprehensive overview of
emerging distributed-systems technologies. It covers peer-to-peer (P2P) systems, which …

We present the initial architecture and implementation of VLab, a Grid and Web‐Service‐
based system for enabling distributed and collaborative computational chemistry and …

User identification and session identification are two major steps in preprocessing Web log
data for Web usage mining. This paper introduces a fast active user-based user …

We describe the architecture and implementation of the Solid Earth Research Virtual
Observatory (SERVO)'s Complexity Computational Environment. We base our design on a …

Grid Computing requires the use of software that can divide and farm out pieces of a
program to as many as several thousand computers. This book explores processes and …

Designing the built environment is by default a multidisciplinary endeavour, producing an
abundance of data that needs to be analysed during the process. This data is associated …

Computational scientists often develop large models and codes intended to be used by
larger user communities or for repetitive tasks such as parametric studies. Lowering the …
