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.

The report concludes that the demands for supercomputing to strengthen U.S. defense and national security cannot be satisfied with current policies and levels of spending. The federal government should provide stable, long-term funding and support multiple supercomputing hardware and software vendors in order to give scientists and policy-makers better tools to solve problems in areas such as intelligence, nuclear stockpile stewardship, and climate change.

Argonne Home About Us Features Awards ... Interesting Links Last Update Argonne Expert Addresses Energy and Environmental Impacts of Fuel Ethanol A recent national debate has arisen over the net energy and environmental benefits of ethanol as a substitute for gasoline in transportation fuels. Argonne researcher Michael Wang, a world-leading expert in this field, presented the results of his research at the Ethanol Energy Open Forum, sponsored by the National Corn Growers Association at the National Press Club , Washington, D.C., on August 23, 2005. Conclusions from Wang's presentation include: Energy balance value alone is not meaningful in evaluating the benefit of ethanol or any other energy product. For proper evaluation, a product's energy balance must be compared with that of the product it replaces. Compared to gasoline, any type of fuel ethanol substantially helps reduce fossil energy and petroleum use. Ethanol produced from corn can achieve moderate reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Ethanol produced from "cellulosic" plants, such as grass and weeds, can achieve much greater energy and greenhouse gas benefits.

112. Spacetime Wrinkles The National Center for supercomputing Applications offers an online exhibit on black holes and Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, including images, video clips, and a bibliography. http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Cyberia/NumRel/NumRelHome.html

SPACETIME WRINKLES In 1905, Albert Einstein published his famous Special Theory of Relativity and overthrew commonsense assumptions about space and time. Relative to the observer, both are altered near the speed of light: distances appear to stretch; clocks tick more slowly. A decade and a year later, Einstein further challenged conventional wisdom by describing gravity as the warping of spacetime, not a force acting at a distance. Since then, Einstein's revolutionary insights have largely stood the test of time. One by one, his predictions have been borne out by experiment and observation. But it wasn't until much later that scientists accepted one of the most dramatic ramifications of Einstein's theory of gravitation: the existence of black holes from whose extreme gravity nothing, not even light, can escape. Major advances in computation are only now enabling scientists to simulate how black holes form, evolve, and interact. They're betting on powerful instruments now under construction to confirm that these exotic objects actually exist. You might like to take a two-minute video tour of this exhibit's contents. However, the Quicktime movie is rather large (12.3 MB!), so be patient when downloading. It could take several minutes. (Further information on downloading movies can be obtained from the

About this site Build your own Follow the links below for a step-by-step look at your own low-cost supercomputing cluster. If you have two or more old DOS machines, the cost can probably be kept under $10. The machines don't need a lot of memory or even a hard drive, but they must have a working parallel port. The platform for the cluster is UBASIC 8.8F, which is an ultra-precision high speed language written entirely in assembly language and downloadable for free. I prefer FreeDOS as the operating system as UBASIC runs significantly faster on it than it does on MS-DOS. Features Communication is a full 8 bits wide with 100% handshaking. Everything fits on one floppy with plenty of room to spare.

Professors at the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University will use the computer, called Big Ben, to develop drugs and test theories on the origins of the universe. Big Ben takes its name from two of Pennsylvania's most popular icons Ben Franklin and the quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Naming a high-performance computer for an athlete might be unusual, but Big Ben isn't even a precedent in this sports-mad metropolis; the city's second-most powerful machine was named for Mario Lemieux, a star hockey player on the NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins.

QUESTIONS FEEDBACK HOME Employment Events Links People User Information Programs Publications Support Welcome Scientific Visualization at the Supercomputing Institute Importance of Visualization in Supercomputer-Based Research Once a computer simulation or analysis has been performed, the results must be interpreted by the researcher. While looking at the results in a numerical form can provide insights, the quantity of numbers produced by some high performance computer simulations can make this task impractical. One alternative is to convert the numbers into pictures and animations, because human beings are inherently far better at understanding information in these forms. A researcher who, for example, is using finite difference methods on a supercomputer to model thermal convection in the Earth's mantel, can use computer graphics on a workstation to visualize the resulting temperatures consisting of millions, perhaps billions, of values. Using a program on the workstation, data for each time step is represented as a grid of pixels on the screen with the pixel colors representing temperature. These grids can then be displayed in succession to show the evolution of the model over time. In the case of a 3-dimensional model, more advanced techniques, such as volumetric rendering, can be used to visualize the data. Graphics Support To assist our researchers, the technical support staff is available to provide specialized graphics and scientific visualization support for Institute researchers. For information or questions, please send email to help@msi.umn.edu or call 626-0802, Feel free to ask any questions, including questions about software, hardware, animations, writing graphics programs, distributed graphics processing, and discussing the application of the various software algorithms and hardware configurations to address your specific needs.
