These papers have been selected from contributions originally accepted in the frame of two workshops: the 4th Grid Applications and Middleware Workshop, GAMW'2009 and the 5th Workshop on Large Scale Computations on Grids, LaSCoG'09. The remaining four papers were selected from the responses to an Open Call for Papers.
The selected papers are addressing a large variety of current research topics related to the call: distributed file systems, scheduling, load balancing, data mining, simulations, mobile agents, scientific portals, workflows, service negotiations or …
