Abstract—This paper “Enhancing Portable Environment
using Cloud and Grid” aims at providing the users with
the most easy and the efficient way of using an OS, which
is stored in a Server and accessing it from anywhere (at
Office or home). The only thing you need to do is that you
should have a system with minimum configuration with
an internet connection and having a browser for accessing
the OS present in the Server. In this paper we are going
to introduce the Web OS – ‘Moving OS to the Web’
concept using Cloud Computing and Grid Computing.
Using Web OS we will be using the concept of Software
as a Service which has a Fabulous advantage, which is, we
can install a new software in one server and can access
the software from other systems. In order to make the
concept of Cloud computing more efficient and reliable,
we are going to include Grid computing for providing
much more performance for the systems which access the
WebOS. This is done since more users login at the same
time and the Server might not be able to provide the
equal performance to all the systems, so when we add
Grid Computing by combining other systems to the
server we can achieve the performance by getting the
performance from the systems that are connected to the
server and providing them to the Systems that are
accessing the Web OS. The Advantages of Web OS are it
runs on any Internet enabled computer or device. This is
important for mobile workers or people who don’t have
their own computers and must work out of Internet cafes,
libraries, or schools. Also, Web OS users can work, log
out, and then log in later from a different computer.
I. INTRODUCTION
Due to the increase in the technological
advancements, Cloud Computing and Grid Computing
are becoming the hottest topics. In Cloud Computing,
users work with Web-based, rather than local storage
and software. How about having our own PC with such
a feature? , So that you can access your own PC where
ever you want, i.e., from your home or office with the
same OS, Hard disc and Soft wares by making the PC
available on the Internet. Doesn’t that sound good?
Yes, it’s possible with Cloud Computing. You can shift
your whole OS to the Web using the Concept of Cloud
Computing. Grid Computing is used as and addition
Feature to provide more performance measure and
efficiency for Cloud Computing.
A. What is Cloud Computing?
Cloud Computing is a nebulous term covering an
array of technologies and services including; Grid
Computing, Utility Computing, Software as a Service
(SaaS), Storage in the Cloud and Virtualization. There
is no shortage of buzzwords and definitions differ
depending on who you talk to. The common theme is
that computing takes place ‘in the cloud’ - outside of
your organizations network.
