Grids and Clusters Part 2: Clusters and their Applications

In Part 1 we reviewed the types and applications of computer grids, dynamic swarms of loosely interconnected computers that are used for problem solving. Now we focus our attention on computer clusters, collections of tightly integrated systems, set in close proximity to each other for fastest data ...

Grids and Clusters Part 1: Grids and their Applications

The use of computer clusters and computational grids to reach very high computational speeds have been making the news lately. Terms like cloud computing, volunteer computing, clusters and grids are regularly appearing in the media. Some of the technologies involved are quite mature, and their adopt...
