PY - 2011 TI - Suitability of Data Intensive Application in a Bandwidth Constrained Global Grid Network JF - American Journal of Applied Sciences VL - 8 IS - 5 DO - 10.3844/ajassp.2011.459.462 UR - https://thescipub.com/abstract/ajassp.2011.459.462 AB - Problem statement: To check the suitability of real time data intensive applications in a global grid network. Approach: With improved bandwidth availability, taking the grid to the internet is becoming a reality. However issues’ regarding the security and bandwidth utilization needs to be understood as these factors become crucial to the success of the grid as a commercial model. Results: Here in this research work we investigate the effect of data intensive applications running in a grid with different number of nodes under constrained bandwidth. Conclusion/Recommendations: Our simulation shows that increasing node count does not guarantee improved quality of service.
