Abstract
Grid technology provides the mechanism for large-scale sharing of computing resources, storage resources and equipments within virtual organizations crossing different administrative domains. ChinaGrid project, founded by Ministry of Education of China, is an attempt to achieve above goals by exploring the various resources on existing and well developed Internet infrastructure, CERNET (China Education and Research Network). In this paper, we introduce the current status of ChinaGrid project, and its driven requirements and architecture. The brief introduction of the design of ChinaGrid Support Platform, named CGSP, is also given. To illustrate the impact of ChinaGrid project, five different grid computing applications and its application supporting platform are discussed in detail.
