He said that the technology is affecting lives by creating new spaces for apps, cloud computing and
grid computing.
Until Sandia National Laboratories and Open
Grid Computing's Lightweight Distributed Metric Service (LDMS), no HPC monitoring tools provided the continuous system-wide platform awareness that system administrators, application developers and users need to understand and troubleshoot application resource contention, network congestion, I/O bottlenecks and associated causes of computer delays.
Grid computing [1, 2] is a growing distributed computing paradigm which enables coordinated sharing of heterogeneous resources across the globe.
System architects of wireless, 4G smartphone, and radar applications now can verify next-generation system performance up to 64 times faster using Linux-based
grid computing managers such as the IBM Platform Load Sharing Facility.
Keywords:
grid computing, genetic algorithm, gravitational emulation local search (GELS), independent task scheduling.
Contributors--presumably computer scientists, though they do not say so--analyze various approaches in desktop
grid computing, which entails applications running across a number of personal computers in a loose network.
Specifically, the CCP combines theory, computation, experiments, and
grid computing by harvesting idle computing time from donors around the world, then using the World Community Grid to perform computational quantum chemistry calculations on a large number of candidate molecules that could potentially form the next generation of solar cells, said Suleyman Er, a postdoctoral research fellow at Harvard University and a member of Aspuru-Guzik's team.
The service provider is using CA 3Tera App Logic to virtualise conventional n-tier web applications and then running them on a scalable
grid computing infrastructure.
Most recently British Airways upgraded its deployment of the Informatica Platform to exploit a
grid computing architecture.
This international collaboration will pave the way for research, development and implementation of a comprehensive
grid computing facility for Oman.
