This paper discusses the concept of grid towards achieving a complete definition using main grid characteristics and uses found in literature. Ten definitions extracted from main literature sources have been studied allowing the extraction of grid characteristics while grid uses are defined in terms of the different types of application support provided by grids. A grid definition is proposed using these characteristics and uses. This definition may be very useful to determine the limits of the grid concept as well as to explore new application fields in grid computing. In this sense, the extracted characteristics are employed to determine the potential benefits a grid infrastructure may provide to Computer Supported Collaborative Learning applications.

The emergence and widespread adoption of Grid computing has been fueled by continued growth in both our understanding of application requirements and the sophistication of the technologies used to meet these requirements. We provide an introduction to Grid applications and technologies and discuss the important role that resource management will play in future developments.

Web design is a dynamic field which evolved around user viewing experience trends. The recent trends have revolutionized the web design approach technologies. The result of which, Responsive Web Design (RWD) concept was coined by Web Designer Ethan Marcotte in the year 2010. RWD is an approach of new paradigms and techniques to develop one single website which looks different for different screen sizes so that it is usable on any access web device. The core concepts of RWD are; media query concept, fluid grid concept, and fluid image concept. The study is inspired by the fluid grid concept. Lots of ink has been spilled on the concept, especially in areas of conversion of website’s fixed grid layouts to fluid grid layouts. However, these approaches involved heavy customization, resulting into slow adaption by web designers. Therefore, the study’s objective is to address this gap by implementing an alternative approach that will be non-customizable and accessible by a single line of code. Hence, study presented an enhanced approach to RWD by implementing an algorithm coined Liquidizer.js in a jQuery Framework. The study employed Matt Kersley RWD Tool: for testing Liquidizer.js, Bersoft Image Measurement (BIM) tool: for validating Liquidizer.js, and USE questionnaire for measuring usability: for evaluation of the Liquidizer.js algorithm in SPSS. The outcome of the study is threefold; to present the state-of-art survey of RWD technology, implement an algorithm Liquidizer.js that achieves an enhanced RWD, and register the Liquidizer.js in the jQuery Library under the GNU General Public License. Index Terms – Responsive Web Design (RWD), jQuery, Fluid grid concept, Liquidizer.js and cascading style sheets (CSS)

Abstract: We present a detailed description of the implementation of a library of Grid tag libraries and Grid beans for Grid Web portal development. Grid tags provide Java Server Faces (JSF) custom components for Grid services. They enable the definition of attributes to the Grid service parameters in a dynamic way embedded into JSF view pages. In addition, Grid beans provide client proxies to the Grid services. Grid tags and beans together provide a platform to develop Grid portlets easily.
