Data management in grids

Refereed post-proceedings of the First International Workshop on Data Management in Grids, in Trondheim, Norway. The 11 papers in this book address current research activities in relation to data management in dynamic, heterogeneous and cross-organizational environments, or grids. They show expertise in the management of very large, widely distributed databases. Conversely, Grids offer a novel and exciting field of research for database scientists in application domains and for fundamental research.
