Ket : Since the advent of the computer in 1940, computing power needs have not ceased to increase. Today, great scientific fields such as high-energy physics, astrophysics, climatology, biology and medical imagery rely on new mutualization technologies and worldwide sharing of computer potential across international grids to meet the huge demand for data processing. Every day, researchers submit hundreds of computations to large-scale distributed infrastructures such as the European Enabling Grids for E-sciencE grid (EGEE) [EGE 04], which gathers more than 100,000 processors. Soon European Grid Infrastructure (EGI) and TeraGrid [PRO 11] in the United States will each be able to aggregate more than double this number of processors. In the near future many industrial domains, such as automobile, energy and transport, which are increasingly relying on digital simulation, will be able to benefit from large shared reservoirs of computer resources. This approach will shortly be extended to e-commerce, finance and the leisure industry.
