Grid computing is the federation of computer resources from multiple administrative domains to reach a common goal. The grid can be thought of as a distributed system with non-interactive workloads that involve a large number of files. What distinguishes grid computing from conventional high performance computing systems such as cluster computing is that grids tend to be more loosely coupled, heterogeneous, and geographically dispersed.

And want to include risk of this bussiness in the conclusion ....
The edges of the triangular elements(Delaunay triangulation) are springs. And the equation of motion at each nodal point is that of a damped SHM under application of a certain shearing force. I have a potential energy function for the system that needs to be minimised to attain the final equilibrium shape under the constraints of conserved surface area and volume. Kindly refer to the 4th chapter in the attached book (modelling of single RBC).
Hi there. Im writing a program in C to solve the viscous burgers equation in 1D using the finite volume method. I am currently using a structured uniform cartesian grid as my computational grid. However i want to implement adaptive mesh refinement in my program. Could anyone tell me the steps i should take in order to do this. Would i have to make i have to make an additional function like say Adapt_Mesh() as well as my Init_Mesh() function and call the Adapt_Mesh() function in the main time loop every time the mesh needs refinement and how could i go about determining if my mesh needs refinement or how would i go about this. Im relatively new to the realm of CFD hence im struggling a lot by thinking how to go implementing this. Could anyone help me. Id be willing to share my current code if anyone could point me in the right direction in regards with how to get started.
*EDIT: Also i have a current gird with 100 cells. If was to adapt the mesh would it refine the mesh so that NX is always 100 ie. by making areas of less density and areas of higher density so that the total points add up to 100 or does the adaptive mesh increase the number of total cells everytime the mesh is refined. This is something im unsure of.
If anyone is curiosus i have attached my program below just incase anyone wanted to take a look
I want to know practical differences
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Do the differences include resource pooling, rapid elasticity, on demand resource provisioning?
Yes, I know, both terms are realtively "fuzzy", but - as they are (or were not so long ago) pretty "trendy" - let us try to be as precise as possible. Some time ago, I thought cloud computing can be considered a subdomain of grid computing - a GRID is a very wide term, containing so different systems as Globus, BOINC and NEOS, so ... almost everything can be considered to be a grid, also clouds.
But just lately, I realized that clouds are, actually an *opposite* of grids!
In grid computing you donate *your* hardware and software resources so that either your own or others' computations/data are performed/stored on them.
And in clouds you send your data/rpgorams "somewhere" (you don't even know where) and buy some "something" (a very volatile something) to process them. You have no idea, *where* your programs/data are stored, but what is certain, is that they are *not* on your own hardware...
I'm not sure if what I've written is clear, but what I'd like to hear are the opinions of people working with clouds/grids. How do you consider your disciplines? Do you consider grids/clouds a competition or a "sister-project"?
For Example, I have a South Carolina map comprising of 5833 grid points as shown below in the picture. How do I interpolate to get data for the unsampled points which are not present in 5833 points but within the South Carolina(red region in the picture) region? Which interpolation technique is best for a South Carolina region of 5833 grid points?
I need HEC-HMS file, with continuous rainfall data and GRIDED subbasin.
I just started using gmsh for 2D triangulations and I'm observing that both the nodes and elements are being outputted in ascending order (consecutively). This is good as it makes reading the data easier but I want to know if this is always the case.
Secondly, I also observed that the physical-line boundaries are outputted as elements with two nodes (line-elements in a 2D triangular mesh). I have also figured out that the actual elements (triangles) are listed after these line-elements. This then means that the true number of triangles (elements) in the mesh is the number of elements oputputted in the mesh file less the number of line-elements. Kindly let me know if this is the correct idea.
Thanks in anticipation.

- How effectively are Monte-Carlo methodology and Grid-Computing technology used in Finance for Corporate Performance Measurement?
- How extensively are these used in different business sectors/industries for Corporate Performance purposes?
- In terms of costs and benefits, how can the trade-off between short-term and long-term of operating Monte-Carlo and Grid-Computing be evaluated?
- Grid Computing and Cloud Computing are not the same, although they are mostly used synonymously in all-day life. Grind Computing has the ambitious vision to "connect and share" heterogeneous hardware for specific high-performance computing (e.g. running complex and resource-intensive calculations with distributed CPUs, RAMs, etc.), while Cloud Computing is till now mostly focused on services used as an interconnection of storage space and telecommunication: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_computing.
- There are several scientific Grid Computing platforms, like e.g. BOINC; but for the Finance world this seems to be quite in an initial phase ...

,, and what if synchronity is mandatory, the job delay will increase accordingly?
I have a collegue who suggested that that it is up to the user to devide, on which I didnt agree, but I didn't found an argument from litterature; in fact it depends on the disponibilite of the resources, so if the code is very tight, the delay will increase relatively to the program size

State of the art of Security Solution for Data Transmission and Storage Management in Cloud Computing
I'm coding an algorithm for surface mesh smoothing. Boundary point distribution is prescribed. Initial quadrilateral grid computed with TFI.
I need to smooth this initial grid (or generate smooth grid) with boundary orthogonality.
I've found several algorithms of elliptic smoothing. The problem is: the initial grid is very complex (for example an aircraft) and I do not know how to decompose it to simple parts which can be smoothed by this algorithms. I've tried to split it in fragments with common parts, but that does not work.
Thanks in advance.
UPD: Surface is parametric r=r(u,v)
I have modelled a 50 KW PV system(in MATLAB) using which I want to feed grid in which no load has been connected.For the initial few seconds in simulation the power of PV remains 50KW but drops later to 0 and remains constant at this value.When I run the PV model in isolation 50KW remains maintained.What could be the possible reason for it?
Secondly my inverter o/p waveform for the initial few seconds deviates from the characteristics required but when PV power becomes zero desired phase voltage characteristics are obtained.what could be the possible reason for it?

Data centers load is basically server work load and cooling load associated with it. In literature papers, there are ways to model the IT load (delay tolerant and delay sensitive) and also cooling load, but how can we use that model to find uncertainty of the load. Is the uncertainty assumed by specifying the range of demand, or can be solved as a stochastic optimization considering different scenarios?

If so what is the most efficient approach and also which part of the system is able to control it?
