2. Objectives of TeraGrid Infrastructure
To provide an unprecedented increase in the computational capabilities available to the open research community, both in terms of capacity and functionality.
To deploy a distributed “system” using Grid technologies rather than a “distributed computer” with centralized control, allowing the user community to map applications across the computational, storage, visualization, and other resources as an integrated environment.
To create an “enabling cyber infrastructure” for scientific research in such a way that additional resources (at additional sites) can be readily integrated as well as providing a model that can be reused to create additional Grid systems that may or may not interoperate with TeraGrid.
