Abstract

Summary form only given. Grid computing presents a new trend to distributed computing and Internet applications, which can construct a virtual single image of heterogeneous resources, provide uniform application interface and integrate widespread computational resources into super, ubiquitous and transparent aggregation. ChinaGrid project, founded by Ministry of Education of China, is a success attempt to achieve above goals by exploring various resources on existing and well developed Internet infrastructure, CERNET (China Education and Research Network). This paper introduces the general picture of ChinaGrid project, its vision and mission. The middleware design of ChinaGrid project, ChinaGrid support platform, called CGSP, is also discussed briefly. To illustrate the reality of ChinaGrid project, five different grid computing applications and its application supporting platform are discussed in detail.
