Abstract
This paper presents the design, analysis and implementation of InterCondor system. The InterCondor system is an implementation of the concept of InterGrid. It uses Condor as a basic local Grid computing engine. It utilizes a series of Grid services, which including register service, data transfer service, task schedule service, security authentication service and status monitor service, to manage the resources such as remote sensing algorithms, remote sensing data, and computing resource under the management of Condor engine. We aim at integrating Grid Service data management, task schedule, and the computing power of Condor into remote sensing data processing and analysis to reduce the processing time of a huge amount of data and long-processing-time remote sensing task by algorithms issuance, data division, and the utilization of any computing resources unused on Internet.
