Framework for handling security issues in interoperable grid services

Grid computing has emerged as a powerful extension of web for a request-response interaction between service providers and service consumers. Today, enterprises focus on their core competencies and hire support services from others. Grid infrastructure supports services on demand. Grids provide coordinated and controlled resource sharing with capability of problem solving in dynamic, multi-organizational virtual enterprises with diverse and heterogeneous computing environment. In this paper, we propose a framework with an interoperable model for grid services and visit the security issues of the interoperable model in the backdrop of available technologies and work by several researchers.
