THE GRIDBUS PROJECT TO RELEASE ExcelGrid SOFTWARE
ExcelGrid is a tool that helps in extending Microsoft Excel from the desktop to enterprise and global Grids as they provide the benefits of improved job execution speed and result in getting processing done faster.

THE GRIDBUS PROJECT TO RELEASE GRID SERVICE BROKER v1.2
The Grid Service Broker, developed as part of the Gridbus Project at the University of Melbourne, mediates access to distributed resources by: (a) discovering suitable data sources for a given analysis scenario; (b) suitable computational resources; (c) optimally mapping analysis jobs to resources; (d) deploying and monitoring job execution on selected resources; (e) accessing data from local or remote data source during job execution; and (f) collating and presenting results.

SUN SYSTEMS HELPS UNIVERSITY CENTERS UNLEASH GRID COMPUTING
Universities from around the globe, including the College of William and Mary, Texas Advanced Computing Center at the University of Texas at Austin, and Pennsylvania State University are using Sun Microsystems' grid computing technologies to enhance their academic research centers and improve their return on investment.
