Abstract
Grid technologies provide a robust infrastructure for
distributed computing, and are widely used in large-scale
scientific applications that generate terabytes (soon
petabytes) of data. This data is described with metadata
attributes about the data properties and provenance, and is
organized in a variety of metadata catalogs distributed over
the grid. In order to find a collection of data that share
certain properties, these metadata catalogs need to be
identified and queried on an individual basis. This paper
introduces Artemis, a system developed to integrate
distributed metadata catalogs on the grid. Artemis exploits
