Abstract
The technological advancements have resulted in substantial
increase of commodity computing, mainly as the outcome of
faster hardware and more sophisticated softwares. In spite the
presence of super computers in present age, all the problems
in the fields of science, engineering and business cannot be
efficiently and effectively dealt with. This is mainly because of
complexity factor and cost margin. For a complex program
presented by any of the fields above, the data provided
requires a number of heterogeneous resources that are
scattered across the globe hence making the problem very
cumbersome to handle. To address this; concept of grid
computing evolved which combines and connects all the
required heterogeneous resources to form a single entity
which can resolve the problem at hand. With the
implementation of grid at practical level lot of problems arise
which need to be addressed before the system is put to use.
One of the main aspects that must be kept under check while
executing a problem set on grid is the security, which mainly
includes the privacy and the integrity of the data that becomes
vulnerable due to its distributed nature. This paper mainly
focuses on the implementation of grid and gives the idea of
the exponential difference between the performances of a
stand-alone system in comparison to grid. In its broader view
we intend to discuss analysis of a specific problem set on both
the platforms, and provide the analysed data to support the
high end performing nature of the grid in contrast to a standalone
system.
