[kepler-dev] semantics

[Zhijie Guan]

I think eventually Kepler should be able to access any Grid system via an 
unique mechanism. The Grid itself means to be accessible anywhere around 
the planet. The Grid should not be categorized into Data Grid or computing 
Grid, academic Grid or commercial Grid, Kepler accessible Grid or Kepler 
inaccessible Grid.

So how about "Grid" or "Computer Grid" (different from power Grid)?
