Mmmm.... i dont understand then the "grid" part of AccessGrid, I though you could "send a job" to a resource on the grid... I know almost nothing about grid computing. How can u do that without comands like "globus-job-run"?? Could you send me some directions about how could I do it from Linux or windows?. Is there any documentation related to "how to access the grid using AccessGrid?", we have a deparment working on projects related to grid, I would like to know the things I should ask to them in order to do a demo about AccessGrid "grid" capabilities.
The point is that i wanna shouw our collegues a demo about accessing the grid and working together using the Accessgrid.
