A grid is a group of computers, servers and storage, which is virtualised as one large computing system across an enterprise. Grids unleash latent power that is not being used at any point in time. They can radically accelerate compute-intensive processes. Grid computing involves applying the resources of many computers in a network to a single problem at the same time—usually a scientific or technical problem that requires a large number of computer-processing cycles or access to huge amounts of data. Grid computing uses software to divide and farm out pieces of a program to as many as several thousand computers. A number of corporations, professional groups and university consortia have developed frameworks and software for managing grid computing projects.

Pune based Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) Director General S Ramakrishnan today said the C-DAC would establish ’grid computing system’ at 14 locations in 40 institutions during current year.

Central to the Chicago group’s effort will be the creation of a distributed data warehouse known as the SID Grid (Social Informatics Data Grid), which will encourage data sharing and accelerate the development of standards for collecting and coding physiological and behavioral data. The SID Grid will be deployed as part of the larger TeraGrid, a suite of grid- computing resources available to the scientific community at large. The Chicago group will develop, test, and refine their data collection and analysis tools through research in three areas of inquiry: multimodal communication, neurobiology of social behavior, and cognitive and social neuroscienceNSF grant to fund project on behavioral psychology

Eventually, the rumour about  aka  has an answer from . It turns out that Google has just released  last night. What is Google Pack? Actually, it is a collection of desktop software developed by Google and companions. For Google itself, they produces 5 softwares listed below.

In addition, Mozilla, Symantec, Lavasoft, and Adobe also joined this campaign.

Actually, I have installed most softwares listed above except only Norton, Ad-Aware, and Google Pack Screensaver. The great advantage of Google Pack is . Actually, it seems to clearly show that Google plays on Desktop War in different way comparing to . Instead of Konfabulator-like APIs, Google offers low-level APIs. I guess that  could be able to run on Google Sidebar someday.
