Abstract
Within grid environments, as the number of remote operations increases, the latencies for these operations become a dominant factor for application performance. Bulk operations represent one potential methodology to reduce latencies for large numbers of similar operations. However, the identification of bulks can pose a non-trivial exercise for application developers, often implying changes in the remote API, and hence direct code modifications to the application.
