abstract:
Grid computing and pervasive computing have affirmed respectively as the paradigm
for high performance computing and the paradigm for user-friendly computing. The
conjunction of such paradigms are now generating a new one: the Pervasive Grid Computing.
This paper presents a middleware for pervasive grid applications. It consists of a set of basic
services that aim to enhance classic grid environments with mechanisms for: i) integrating
mobile devices in a pervasive way; ii) providing context-awareness; iii) handling mobile usersÂ’
sessions; and, iv) distributing and executing user tasks on the devices (even mobile) active in
the environment.
