Drivers and Barriers in China
DRIVERS Move Grid from complex scientific computing to commercial
applications. Focus on main sectors: Finance, Insurance, Real Estate,
Manufacturing, Professional Business services and Entertaiment industry
Need of complete Grid solutions. Ability of virtualization. New applications
BARRIERS Lack of standards Grid is a complex system and needs many skilful engineers to
maintain Enterprises treat new technology with less enthusiasm than they
used to do before
