If the mutation rate is chosen to be 2%, only 2% of the genes are swapped their
contents with others.
3.7 The System for Experiment
The Globus Toolkit 2.2 is used as middleware to develop our grid computing
environment [7, 8]. This section presents the main steps for installing and setting up
this environment.
An Ethernet LAN and three Intel Pentium machines were used to build the grid
environment. Redhat Linux 9.0 and Globus Toolkit 2.2 were installed and set up. In
Figure 3-23, we present this environment with the host names and functions of each
machine.

FIGURE 3-23 Hardware and software for each machine
The host names are m1, m2 and m3. The machines should have a clock speed of
at least 500 Mhz, at least 128 MB of memory and at least an 8 GB hard drive.
We will configure the Monitoring and Discovery Service (MDS) to have one
Grid Information Index Service (GIIS) on machine m2, which collects the data
reported by the Grid Resource Information Servers (GRIS) on all the machines,
shown in Figure 3-24.
The GRIS servers send information about their respective servers to the GIIS.
We will use this to find the available machines. The user will be able to query the
