Abstract
In this work, we present two perspectives of Grid computing by using two different Grid middleware as examples: an Enterprise Grid using Xgrid and a Global Grid with Gridbus. We also present the integration of Enterprise and Global Grids by proposing the integration of Gridbus Broker with diverse enterprise Grid middleware including Xgrid, PBS, Condor and SGE. The sample performance results demonstrate the usefulness of this integration effort.
