Title
A Revisiting of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Grid
Abstract
The \"Grid\" as defined by Foster and Kesselman was a unifying architecture that engendered a new generation of distribution computation, data sharing, and science. Along the way many \"grid\" technologies were developed, but their mapping to the principal architecture envisaged by the Grid's authors was never concretely specified. We present a decade's long study of 18+ technologies that claim to be \"grid\"; and ask the question \"what makes a grid technology a grid?\" This question, along with empirical research using topical software architectural recovery techniques; code and program analysis; clustering and information retrieval, allow the definition of an updated grid architecture that more uniformly captures what was built over this timeframe.
