Compute Grid
• In a nutshell: A collection of computers from different administrative domains that behave like a single resource.
• Examples: Nimrod, BELLE data project, APAC
• Issues: resources, trust, middleware (OGSA, Globus), AAA & Applications

Data Grid
• In a nutshell: A collection of data sets from different administrative domains that behave like a single resource.
• Examples: FilmEd, VO, PARADISEC, BELLE data project, BioMirror
• Issues: copyright, metadata, discovery, rights management, AAA & Applications
11
Access Grid
• In a nutshell: A collection of interactive, multimedia visualisation centres that support distributed large-scale meetings, collaborative work sessions, seminars, lectures, tutorials and training.
• Examples: USyd ViSLAB, 40 AGN’s
• Issues: middleware, security, specialist operator, integration of applications
12
Instrument Grid
• In a nutshell: Remote, collaborative access to unique / scarce instruments such as microscopes, particle accelerators, telescopes…
• Examples: NANO & USyd EMU
• Issues: instrument interfaces, middleware, AAA
