Xgrid
In
computers,
Xgrid is
software (Apple Computer, Inc., n.d.) developed by
Apple's Advanced Computation Group which allows a group of networked computers to engage in
distributed computing. Presumably, the original
purpose of Xgrid is to offer
scientists an easy-to-implement
method of exploiting heretofore underused computational power, at a low
cost (OSNews.com, 2004).
