Cloud computing and Grid computing are the two words that end up confusing many people as they are similar in theory. Cloud computing and Grid computing involves a massive computer network ...

Cloud computing and grid computing are often mistaken for one another, but the fact is that they’re nowhere close to the same thing. This article explains both systems, and how they differ from one ...

To increase the efficiency of any task, the authors require a system that would provide high performance along with flexibilities and cost efficiencies for user. Distributed computing, as they are all ...

People don’t talk much about grid computing much these days anymore, but most application teams th at require high performance from their infrastructure are actually addicted to grid computing -- ...

In a sort of digital interpretation of the adage, “Waste not, want not,” the basic idea of grid computing is to use the computational power of idle PCs and harness those heretofore wasted cycles to ...

ORLANDO — Grid storage and storage clusters — are the terms interchangeable? They could be if you ask users and industry analysts who participated in several panels at Storage Networking World this ...

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.
