A community portal about Grid computing with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Grid computing is an emerging computing model that provides the ability to perform higher throughput computing by taking advantage of many networked computers to model a virtual computer architecture that is able to distribute process execution across a parallel infrastructure. Grids use the resources of many separate computers connected by a network to solve large-scale computation problems. Grids provide the ability to perform computations on large data sets, by breaking them down into many smaller ones, or provide the ability to perform many more computations at once than would be possible on a single computer, by modeling a parallel division of labor between processes. Today resource allocation in a grid is done in accordance with SLAs.

Alan Oxley, Computing, Thursday 8 October 2009 at 07:15:00 Computational grids are not new, but ongoing research suggests there is scope for improvement A grid is a computer network in which the resources are pooled. A job arriving on the grid needs to be allocated to a computer or, possibly, split up and allocated to several computers. The software responsible for making this decision must find a suitable computer. This activity is termed...
