Definition of the Grid Problem The “Grid Problem” is defined as the flexible, secure, coordinated resource sharing among dynamic collections of individuals, institutions and resources. From “Anatomy of the Grid (Enabling Scalable Virtual Organisations)” I.Foster et al. Intl. J. Supercomputer Applications 2001.
