== History ==
Grid-oriented Storage (GOS) was proposed by Prof. Frank Wang and Dr. Na Helian in 2003 in a funding proposal, titled “Grid-Oriented Storage (GOS): Next Generation Data Storage System Architecture for the Grid Computing Era”, to the UK government. The proposal was approved and granted one million pounds in 2004. The first prototype was constructed in 2005 at Centre for Grid Computing, Cambridge-Cranfield High Performance Computing Facility. The first conference presentation was at IEEE Symposium on Cluster Computing and Grid (CCGrid), 9 - 12 May 2005, Cardiff, UK. As one of the five best work-in-progress, it was included in the IEEE Distributed Systems Online. In 2006, the GOS architecture and its implementations was published in IEEE Transactions on Computers, titled “Grid-oriented Storage: A Single-Image, Cross-Domain, High-Bandwidth Architecture”. From January 2007, the GOS invention led to invitations to present demonstrations at Princeton University, Cambridge University (Computer Lab), IBM, Rolls Royce, BBC, Xerox, Carnegie Mellon University, CERN, and EADS, etc. A number of collaborations have been fostered with industrial giants.
