Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of the book Grid Computing: The New Frontier of High Performance Computing that discusses several issues (general issues, performance, and applications) associated with grid computing. Grid computing is a natural development of distributed computing given the recent progress in the networking technology, including the Internet. Initially, grid computing has been tested on large scientific applications and involved the most progressive and technically advanced laboratories, universities, and commercial companies. It is expected that the grid technology may spread to commercial and business high end computing and may be used widely as the most advanced and economic computing resource method. The book discusses a general model for instruction-level distributed computing and computer architecture along with advanced parallel computer architecture for high performance computing.
