Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 9, Problem 17RETC
Explanation of Solution
Grid computing:
In this type of computing, geographically remote computers are connected into single network. This results into a virtual supercomputer by combining all of the computers computational capabilities on the grid. This is made possible only when high-speed internet connections are available to connect the remote machines economically and also move abundant amount of data. Software programs are necessary to control and allocate resources on the grid.
Examples:
- Schedulers:
- Schedulers are the applications that help in managing the jobs by allocating the required resources for any specific job, partitioning of jobs to schedule parallel execution of tasks, event correlation, data management, and service-level management capabilities...
