Motivation for GARUDA• Sharing of high-end computational resources

with the larger scientific and engineering community across the country

• Emerging High Performance Computing (HPC) applications require integration of geographically distributed resources

• Collaborative Framework for solving applications which are interdisciplinary requiring experts from multiple domains and distributed locations

• Universal (location-independence, ubiquitous) access to resources

Computational Grids effectively address the above application requirements
