Project notes about Unlocking the Grid: The report of the Information Age Partnership Grid Taskforce (February 2004)
- Good section on 'What is Grid?' includes a nice definition.
- Page 4 - first paragraph starts with "The term 'grid' is variously used to describe a number of different, but related, ideas, including utility computing concepts, grid technologies...". This looks like a robust definition to use.
- Page 6 - gives a Medium term view of what the Grid could be used for. We should use these examples as Use Cases, e.g. "requiring issues such as ownership, management and accounting to be handled within trusted partnerships." (said within the context VOs and medium=approx. 5 year timeframe).
