Grid computing aims to involve everyone in the advantages of resource sharing and the benefits of increased efficiency.

Grid computing not only provides the resources that allow our scientists to cope with vast collections of data, it also allows this data to be distributed all over the world, which means scientific teams can work on international projects from the comfort of their own laboratories.
