Combining Mobile Internet and Grid technologies could mean the ability to command the power of supercomputers with a mobile device. The computing and data transfer capacities of mobile devices are expanding and Grid-related technologies are already being employed in them. In this paper, we survey the current technologies and standards, mainly concentrating on MIDP (Mobile Information Device Profile) devices and Java (J2ME) interfaces. The technology has a potential for many new interesting applications. This paper outlines a feasibility study, a technological review and examples of applications. 1

The computing and data transfer capacities of mobile devices are expanding, and Grid-related technologies in them are already being employed.

The development of this software was relatively fast-paced and performed by a team split into two physical locations for large part of the most active development period. The original design documents did not contain any overt use of design pattern methodology and all of the developers were not familiar with design patterns. We believe that analysing the design of such a software, starting from the original forces that drove the requirement specification, can provide a valuable insight into the general nature of patterns. We will also discuss ways to measure if the quality and productivity of further development of this kind of project could be improved by using pattern-based analysis of the existing software.

While the developed technologies could be employed to help the daily work in the public sector and in healthcare, their wide adaptation has not been seen, yet. In this paper we present a survey, which we conducted to find out how the decision makers and system specialists in the public service sector see the role of Grid technologies in their future work. The respondents of the survey work as decision makers and systems specialists in the healthcare and the public services domain in Switzerland.

A review of the current state of the art of research around digital identification on both the Web and the Grid is presented as a background in order to propose a novel and innovative framework for federated global identity management. The paper presents a progress report on the FEGIMA project that aims to deliver a unique framework whose fundamental innovation lies in the fact that it extends the management of global identity to get federated access across heterogeneous ICT platforms.

Such a platform implies a secure vertical integration between heterogeneous grid platforms but more significantly creates the condition for horizontal integration i.e. interoperability of various global infrastructures (the Internet, the Web and the Grid) with common services i.e the creation of new secure and trustworthy global and interoperable services. The proposed research is both fundamental and highly innovative because the FeGIMa framework manages individual and organizational identification with their disparate security mechanisms. It does so for the variety and diversity of global ICT stake-holders through the formulation of a sufficientl...
