Abstract :
Grids provide infrastructures and solutions to solve large scale cooperative problems such as large scale distributed virtual environment simulation, multi-institutional scientific computing and data analysis, etc. In this paper, the key techniques for grid computing based large scale distributed cooperative virtual environment simulation (GDCVES) are discussed and a hierarchical architecture of GDCVES is proposed. The solutions of GDCVES, such as resource management, massive data management, security aware task scheduling, and fault-tolerance are also discussed. To evaluate the feasibility and scalability of GDCVES, a prototype was implemented and the simulation workflow framework is also analyzed.
