Some Statistics










The GCC2005 published papers are
Grids
55%
P2P
18%
Semantics/Information Management 11%
Performance
6%
Software Egy/Coop Computing
9%
including
e-Science 0% (roughly as some Grids could be called eScience))
Parallel Computing < 1%
Cooperative Computing including CSCW (Computer
Supported Cooperative Work) 1-2 %
Parallel Computing






From CI6016, ~10 petaflop performance computers by
2010 from USA, China, Japan and Europe
Clusters dominate Top 500
Multicore chips will re-invigorate field over next decade
as implies parallelism inevitable for all applications
• Could have a workshop or session on this at next
GCC2005
Still dreaming of a better software model
NVIDIA graphics company considers parallel software
for multicore critical problem
DoE holds Zettaflops (1000,000Xpetaflops) meeting
Harmonizing and e-digitalconsumer




e-Infrastructure supports linkages between computers, data
systems and people with Grids and peer-to-peer networks covered
in GCC2005
We have billions of conventional local or global connections
• Phones, web page accesses, plane trips, hallway conversations
• e-digitalconsumer (talks at CI6016) analogous to data driven
science just as e-Classical Enterprise like Compute Grids
• Compare Apple and Sun (or even Dell) stock performance for
e-Consumer (ipod) v. e-Enterprise (server) momentum
• Harmonizing civilizations across the globe
Conventional Internet technology manages billions of broadcast
or low (2-way) links
Grids superimpose managed multiple M-way overlaid
organizations with optimized resources and system support
• P2P lets this be done by the people ……….


2008 Olympics will offer a lot of opportunity for harmonizing,
cooperation and collaboration between e-Sports fans
GCC2006 onwards could have a focus session on this type of
Collaboration or Computer Supported Cooperative Work
Current Internet Interactions


Television and the Web allows individuals to communicate
instantly with each other via Web Pages and Headline News
acting as proxies – International Harmonizing of civilizations
N resources deposit information and N can view -- Broadcast
M2 Interactions
• Superimpose M way
“Grids” on the sea
(heatbath) of client
server or
broadcast
ordinary
interactions
