The Grid is an emerging infrastructure that will fundamentally change the way we think about - and use - computing. The basic idea is very simple, since it is about harnessing unused resources through the Internet, or a corporate Intranet, to solve major computational problems that require far more computing power and data storage than that available at any single location
EGEE Project
The Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) project is funded by the European Commission and aims to build on recent advances in grid technology and develop a service grid infrastructure
