Statistical Analysis of Research Papers on Computional Grid Technology in China

The last decade witnessed a substantial increase in the development of computing grid, mainly as a result of faster hardware and more sophisticated software. Grid computing is a term referring to the combination of computer resources from multiple administrative domains to reach a common goal. It links together computing resources such as PCs, workstations, servers, storage elements, and provides the mechanism needed to access them. This paper will give a brief description to grid computing firstly, and then illustrate how grid technology develops in China by the analysis of four aspects(Annual distributions, Journals, authors and keywords)of papers published in core journals.
