Abstract

Grid computing supports sharing of distributed resources across boundaries and authorization domains, and can help scientists by providing secure, transparent and easy access to computing resources. We have designed and developed grid-based services for accessing, visualizing, and reliably manipulating remote spectrometry instruments. We harness grid-computing technologies to allow scientists to concentrate on performing experiments and data analysis, without having to become experts in the software technologies enabling these activities.
