GridExplorer is an Eclipse plug-in to manage and use your Fura servers. Fura is a powerful grid middleware, also hosted in sourceforge.

GridSweeper makes it easy to perform batch runs of scientific simulation programs on computational grids/distributed resource management systems.

The GridUnit project is a first effort to use the huge heterogeneity and distributed nature of Computational Grids to imporve the software testing process. It is an extension of the widelly adopted JUnit testing framework.

Gridder is a group of portlets that simplify the use and administration of grid services. Especially for job submission management. Gridder also extends and documents the functionality of the OGCE Bundle. It is plenty of useful documentation.

GridKit is a reflective middleware to overcome network and middleware heterogeneity in pervasive environments. It uses reconfigurable overlay networks to underpin multiple interaction types. The component development model (OpenCOM) is also provided.

Gridster - a lightweight grid computing framework written in Java. Utilizes JMS and should work nicely in any standards-based Enterprise Java environment.

Implementation of Fault Tolerant CORBA specification, V1.0 (OMG Document ptc/2000-04-04), extended to support large-scale, distributed systems. Implements both Passive (Cold and Warm) and Active replication styles.

GuidLib is a library with functions for GUIDs (also known as UUIDs, as defined by RFC 4122).

HADOS is a server software for storing files in a cluster of server. The goal is to handle high availability by storing copy of the same file on several nodes. HADOS provides RESTFUL APIs to easily store, check or retrieve files. Using the powerful cluster APIs you can retrieve the files whatever the node that hosts it. To avoid any single point of failure, it is possible to apply a request to any node of the cluster, there is no master node.

Helena is an explicit state model checker for high-level Petri nets.

HERAKLES is a reasoning broker framework for OWL (Web Ontology Language) reasoning systems.

This is a middleware solution for HPC.

High Performance Computing test

HPCC Systems offers a consistent data-centric programming language, two processing platforms and a single, complete end-to-end architecture for efficient processing.

HadoopDB is a hybrid of parallel database and MapReduce technologies. It approaches parallel databases in performance and efficiency, yet still yields the scalability, fault tolerance, and flexibility of MapReduce systems.

This project aims to reduce the data read redundancy in the Apache Hadoop.

Hedera provides common interfaces for popular group communications packages like JGroups, Appia, and Spread. Hedera allows applications to switch easily between group communications without code changes and with minimal reconfiguration.

Hellsing is a distributed JavaScript engine.

The Herdtools are a set of user-level cluster management and control utilities with a consistent command line interface. These include things like parallel file copy, remote execution, sudo execution, job kill, etc. We utilize Rob Brown's "procstatd" d

This project is to build a distributed Key-Value Store (KVS). * Can survive software or hardware failures. * Can tolerate failures of entire nodes. * Can recognize that new storage nodes are joining the system and are able to utilize new nodes.

Hoster's Mate is an open source distributed provisioning system that allows hosters to centrally manage their server park without setting up a huge commercial solution.

Hotpotato is a Java based distributed processing client-server framework

The Hybrid Ad Hoc Grid is a self-organizing computational grid which has simplified installation, reduced administrative activities and fault recovery.

Hybrid Circuit Switching On-chip Network Implementation

HyGrid provides a mechanism for building a grid of hybrid nature that could be used to handle the jobs requiring huge computational, storage or both the resources at the same time.
