Grid App Enablement: Parallel Batch and Service

17
Anonymous Reader writes “This article, Part 3 in the series, describes the third and fourth of six strategies for grid application enablement. With the third strategy, the work of a batch program is subdivided so that multiple independent program instances can each work on part of the job in parallel. With the fourth strategy, a program becomes a service subroutine callable by a client through some grid middleware. A major objective is to have the application as middleware-agnostic as possible.”
