Foil 3 Classes of Grid Applications

From Applications and Programming Models for Computational Grids PPoPP Panel on Computational Grids -- May 5 99. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 Seamless (one at a time) access to multiple heterogeneous supercomputers -- what users want today
2 "Parameter Studies" (pleasingly parallel)
3 PC, Workstation, Origin 2000/SP2 clusters ("Grid in a box" -- parallel computing built from distributed components)
4 Federated Computing such as Distributed Modeling and Simulation with demands for flexible linkage of largish components but loose not tight coupling
5 TeleMedicine and Distance Education (not high performance?)
