Citations for the Globus Toolkit

Many Globus contributors work in an academic environment, in which "citations" are (for better or worse) often viewed as important. Thus, if you are writing a technical article about Grids, Grid tools, or Grid applications, we'd be grateful if you cite relevant papers by Globus team members. (Please do not cite a Web page; that doesn't help!)
