Abstract
Grid computing [3] constitutes the amalgamation of a drive towards the standardization of existing technologies that enable the collaboration of scientists overcoming restrictions of location, distance and compatibility. The aim is to exploit the full potential of resources, computational or informational. We aim to study how a network of distributed and heterogeneous grid resources could attain maximum adaptability to languages, models, scientific uses in a service composition based knowledge discovery environment. No language or data model assumptions are herein made. The presence of grid layers that can handle basic service registration, etc. tasks, service execution and data mobility is premised.
