Abstract
Grid computing is a means of allocating the computational power of a large number of computers to complex difficult computation or problem. Grid computing is a term referring to the combination of computer resources from multiple administrative domains to reach a common goal. Grid is a form of distributed computing mainly to virtualizes and utilize geographically distributed idle resources. A grid is a distributed computational and storage environment often composed of heterogeneous autonomously managed subsystems. This paper contains the most important aspects of Grid computing. Grid Computing allows high performance distributed system to act as a single computer. An overview of grid structure and techniques is given in order to understand the way Grid work.
