The Globus system is intended to achieve a vertically integrated treatment of application, middleware, and network. A low-level toolkit provides basic mechanisms such as communication, authentication, network information, and data access. These mechanisms are used to construct various higher level metacomputing services, such as parallel programming tools and schedulers. The longterm goal is to build an adaptive wide area resource environment (AWARE), an integrated set of higher level services that enable applications to adapt to heterogeneous and dynamically changing metacomputing environments. Preliminary versions of Globus components were deployed successfully as part of the I-WAY networking experiment.
