The Grid is an emerging computational infrastructure, similar to the pervasive energy infrastructure provided by national power grids. Simulation and Visualization on the Grid focuses on applications and technologies on this emerging computational Grid. Readers will find interesting discussions of such Grid technologies as distributed file I/O, clustering, CORBA software infrastructure, tele-immersion, interaction environments, visualization steering and virtual reality as well as applications in biology, chemistry and physics. A lively panel discussion addresses current successes and pitfalls of the Grid. This book provides an understanding of the Grid that offers a persistent, wide-scale infrastructure for solving problems.
