[Zzzoot] Using grid computing and other advanced technologies (such as A.I. and Semantic Web), a workflow architecture allows for the capture of complex scientidic workflows and their application in a distributed fashion on data sets in an efficient manner.

testingReflections.com | The mind-share information resource for software testing, agile testing and test-first/test-driven dev: The commercial performance/load test tool market is dominated by large proprietarycommercial vendors (HP/Mercury, Borland/Segue, etc). Radview has a nice product calledWebLOAD that competes in the space. (via Cosmos)
Symmetry factor: Basically, it’s like a “toy grid.” Those computers in high schools would be used for the dual purposes of teaching high school students the basics of Linux/Windows administration and scientific computational methods and as a commodity cluster for high energy physics computations (in my case, analytical calculations of pQCD corrections).

Chris Abraham - Because the Medium is the Message: I have a lot to say about the low (appalling) level of service I received, but here is what I wrote in my closing comment as to why I have chosen to close my account at (mt) gs: "The service sucked, the response was sub-par, the reliability was much lower than marketing resources or the promises of the Media Temple grid server promised, and your response to all of my requests were responded to dismissively and with no respect or quality of service."

Andy's Blog: That would actually be pretty cool of BestBuy, if not a bit Big Brother-like. It would not only give them new forms of revenue (processing data for companies via grid computing), but also by having their own botnet-ish software running, they could scan for viruses and keep those computers clean, which could very well take a bite out of existing, Black Hat botnets.

Blah, Blah! Technology: Everyone will build the next layer of intelligence into the web using integrated tools for social networking, allowing for both interaction and collaboration. Web 2.0-style tagging will be formalized and expanded so that documents and other web data that now must be interpreted by humans can be read and understood by computers.” (via Cosmos)
Library 2.0: An Academic's Perspective: So, it's interesting to speculate about impetus for the next phase, usually referred to as Web 3.0. (By the way, I find it interesting that the wider world does not dispute the reality of Web 2.0, whereas some librarians debate whether Library 2.0 exists.) There are already numerous writings out there that refer to Web 3.0. (via Cosmos)
Thinking Aloud: At least 50 packs of potato chips, 500 cups of coffee, 20 packs of peanuts, 20 packs of McDonalds meals and 50 packs of Indian food were consumed during the project. This does not include other kinds of snacks or meals, such as banana fritters, sandwiches, soft drinks, etc. (via Cosmos)
Dion Hinchcliffe's Web 2.0 Blog: Even more intriguing, we are seeing the emergence of genuine open Web component models such as what NetVibes has come up with recently with their cross platform widget API, known as the Universal Widget API, encouraging open, cross site widget compatibility. Netvibes has made our best Web 2.0 software list two years in a row and for good reason, they remain the best Ajax start page out there and they also get how to fully leverage the Web. (via Cosmos)
bdeseattle: For example, it frustrates the hell out of me that when I do a technorati search for "web3.0" the majority of results that come back are in other languages that I don't understand. If I'm to understand the power of the semantic web and web3.0 platform, then I would expect this query to return results that I can read and understand. (via Cosmos)
Squid: Folding@Home is a distributed computing project organised by Stanford University. F@H takes a massive task - protein folding calculations - and splits it up into manageable chunks, which are then distributed to a network of volunteer computers to solve. (via Cosmos)
[Digital-copyright.ca] news aggregator | Digital Copyright Canada: As I noted a while ago, what radio figured out long ago, TV has now started to exploit: “one can only stand by and watch as Demagoguery 2.0 explodes in the mainstream media - as a new generation of silvery-tongued pretend populists learn that the ordinary disappointments of a middle-class middle-aged life that so profitably fuelled talk radio can be exploited for TV profits also. These days, meanness is very profitable.”
