Naming the scenarios
After looking at the scenarios and trying to figure out what the essence is, we have thought of the following names for the scenarios.
Nutty Professor
The title Nutty Professor reflects the fact that in this scenario GRID Technology is only present within the research labs. There is not a common infrastructure being used and therefore only the nutty professors who see a glimpse of hope are working on GRID.
Lost in Translation
The title Lost in Translation reflects the fact that their are many things happening in the world of GRID, but as a result of lack of open standards, in another word, no common language between different Grid platforms, it is not being used to its' fullest extent. Although researchers are using an implementation of grid, these are mostly national initiatives. Global integration is the next step!
A million dollar baby
This title A million dollar baby reflects the fact that even the commercial B2B market is very interested in GRID technology. A lot of new players are joining in and GRID has a prosper future ahead.
