TLDR
The exNode is introduced, a data structure that aggregates storage allocations on the Internet and follows a very simple philosophy, very similar to the Internet Protocol, and the resulting semantic might be too weak for some applications.About:

TL;DR: A conceptual framework is proposed to introduce a roadmap from a system design perspective, with potential use cases provided and a set of standards, a resource sharing environment, a collaborative integrated modelling environment, and a distributed simulation environment discussed.
Dissertation
Scheduling distributed data-intensive applications on global grids
TL;DR: This paper introduces a heuristic for the selection of resources based on a solution to the Set Covering Problem (SCP), and pair this mapping heuristic with the well-known MinMin scheduling algorithm and conduct performance evaluation through extensive simulations.
