Grid Computing delivers on the potential in the growth and abundance of
network connected systems and bandwidth: computation, collaboration and
communication over the Advanced Web. At the heart of Grid Computing is a
computing infrastructure that provides dependable, consistent, pervasive and
inexpensive access to computational capabilities. The use of grid computing
in the context of e-learning shows what advantages a utilization of grid computing
may have to offer and which applications could benefit from it. In capturing
knowledge and heuristics about how to select application components and
computing resources, and using that knowledge to generate automatically
executable job workflows for the Grid. In one of the latest developments in Grid
Computing Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks have become fashionable for the
Grid system architecture. The current implementations are either Data Grids or
CPU sharing Grids.
