Although grids and clusters may both satisfy high-performance or high-throughput requirements by enabling distributed computing, grids solve the more complicated problem of providing computing ...

The electric power grid is undergoing an unprecedented transformation due to the changing electric generation and load landscape, moving from large-scale solutions to customer-based decentralized and ...

The concept of “grid computing” was created in the late 1990s by researchers at Argonne National Labs and other places. Like many revolutionary concepts in IT, including the World Wide Web and ...

In genetics, with increasing data sizes and more advanced algorithms for mining complex data, a point is reached where increased computational capacity or alternative solutions becomes unavoidable.
