Case Study 1: The University of Tennessee
Grid computing is one of the most exciting new frontiers in computational science; it will harness the power of diverse computer resources as never before. One institution at the forefront of grid computing research, the University of Tennessee, has set up a research grid to make this an attainable reality. Grid research may one day lead to huge distributed computing networks that will bring unimaginable compute power to bear on the biggest and most complex challenges in science, or allow every student fast access to supercomputing-type resources.
The University of Tennessee researchers constructed their grid to learn more about grid computing and to assess new high performance architectures that could ...
