Multi level authentication mechanism for grid application using one-time password

Grid applications often involves large amount of data that requires secured resources access and sharing. The multi-institutional nature of a Grid environment introduces challenging security issues, especially with regard to authentication. The goal of this project is to propose an advance authentic...
