Abstract: | The term “Grid” was introduced in early 1998 with the launch of the book “The Grid. Blueprint for a new computing infrastructure”.
Since that time many technological changes have occurred in both hardware and software. One of the most important ones seems
to be the wide acceptance of Web services. Although the basic Grid idea has not changed much in the last decade, many people
have different ideas about what a Grid really is. In the following article we report on a survey where we invited many people
in the field of Grid computing to give us their current understanding.
