Distributed Computing





RING DESCRIPTION: Distributed computing is a science which solves a large problem by giving small parts of the problem to many computers to solve and then combining the solutions for the parts into a solution for the problem. Recent distributed computing projects have been designed to use the computers of hundreds of thousands of volunteers all over the world, via the Internet, to look for extra-terrestrial radio signals, to look for prime numbers so large that they have more than ten million digits, and to find more effective drugs to fight the AIDS virus. These projects are so large, and require so much computing power to solve, that they would be impossible for any one computer or person to solve in a reasonable amount of time.

GPU - a Gnutella Processing Unit
GPU is a distributed computing platform over peer-to-peer. It is written as an extension of the Gnutella network used in file-sharing. An interesting feature of GPU is that the network of connected clients can be seen as a 3D model. The project is run by volunteers and is under development.

Distributed computing will eventually revolutionize the computing field much as the Internet has but in ways we can't imagine.
