Image courtesy Academia Sinica Grid Computing Centre The Academia Sinica Grid Computing Centre is developing a next-generation grid-based research infrastructure for Taiwan based on gLite and the Open Science Grid. ASGC’s Data Grid system, a major part of this infrastructure deployed in 2004 using the Storage Resource Broker system, has the Atmospheric Science Data Grid as one of its applications. Through the Atmospheric Science Data Grid, scientists from four Taiwanese universities can access multi-dimensional scientific data through Web-based visualization and analysis services.
