Grid4All

Grid4All embraces the vision of a democratic Grid as a ubiquitous utility whereby domestic users, small organisations and enterprises may draw on resources on the Internet without having to individually invest and manage computing and IT resources.

 

Internet and its services are central to European life - at work and at home, indoors and outdoors. The next logical step is to provide the possibility to plug-and-upgrade personal computing capacity and to secure collaborative edutainment space on the fly through managed sharing of IT resources over the Internet. Grid4All will enable Grid services to evolve from high performance computing niche markets to a multipurpose service for anybody.

Grid4All - by leveraging the large base of broadband users - was aiming to advance the pervasiveness of Grid computing across society.
