Grid computing
Contributed by: Skelton
  • 1. Grid computing is a distributed computing paradigm that allows multiple computers to work together to solve complex problems. In grid computing, resources such as processing power, storage, and applications are shared across a network of computers, enabling large-scale computation and data processing. Grid computing can be used for a wide range of applications, including scientific research, data analysis, and simulations. By harnessing the collective power of multiple machines, grid computing enables faster processing speeds and increased efficiency in handling large datasets. Grid computing is designed to be flexible and scalable, allowing users to dynamically allocate resources based on changing computing demands. Overall, grid computing offers a cost-effective and high-performance solution for tackling computationally intensive tasks.
