Clay Shirky's Writings About the Internet clay@shirky.com Grid Supercomputing: The Next Push First published May 20, 2003 on the "Networks, Economics, and Culture" mailing list. Subscribe to the mailing list. Grid Computing is, according to the Grid Information Centre a way to "...enable the sharing, selection, and aggregation of a wide variety of geographically distributed computational resources." It is, in other words, an attempt to make Sun's famous pronouncement "The Network Is The Computer" an even more workable proposition. (It is also an instantiation of several of the patterns of decentralization that used to travel together under the name peer-to-peer.) Despite the potential generality of the Grid, most of the public pronouncements are focusing on the use of Grids for supercomputing. IBM defines it more narrowly: Grid Computing is "... applying resources from many computers in a network-at the same time-to a single problem" , and the MIT Technology Review equated Grid technology with supercomputing on tap when it named Grids one of " Ten Technologies That Will Change the World This view is wrong. Supercomputing on tap won't live up to to this change-the-world billing, because computation isn't a terribly important part of what people do with computers. This is a lesson we learned with PCs, and it looks like we will be relearning it with Grids.

David Gardner, TechWeb News The reputation of Tennessee's Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) as a center of supercomputing is gaining recognition, not just because it received a $25 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), but also because the applications to be carried out there are open and public. The supercomputing projects at the Energy Department's more famous supercomputing labsincluding Los Alamos National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Sandia National Laboratoriesare mostly secret. “We will have the most powerful system in the open,” said Dr. Jack Dongarra, a professor at the University of Tennessee's Computer Science Department, in an interview. Dongarra also carries the title of Distinguished Research Participant at the Oak Ridge lab. “We'll have the most powerful supercomputer outside the DOE.” While many participants in supercomputing talk about speed and power, Dongarrawho is also the director of the university's Center for Information Technology Research (CITR)likes to talk about the applications to be carried out on the advanced machines. Dongarra said he is focusing on two key applications initiallyclimate modeling and materials science. Climate modeling is aimed at calculating and researching the impact of weather and is not concerned with weather forecasting. Materials science, as the name implies, involves advanced research into materials. Research involving superconducting materials is a particularly hot subject now, Dongarra said.

Supercomputing speeds continue to rise, with yesterday's fastest machines buried by today's speed kings, but when will supercomputers reach their limits? Most experts agree that current barriers to supercomputing speeds which are approaching hundreds of teraflops will fall. A teraflop equals 1 trillion floating point operations per second.
