Supercomputers and Clusters and Grids: Oh, My!

Abstract:
In this talk we will look at the changes that have taken place in the area of
High Performance Computing over the last 10 years, and will look toward future
trends. He will advocate the "Grid" to support large-scale applications. This
envisaged Grid must provide transparent access to the complex combination of
tools necessary for solution of applications problems - computational,
networking, and storage - that can be provided through aggregation of
distributed resources.
