Internet will become 10000x-faster

Grid internet technology - Internet will become 10000x-faster
Welcome to the future technologies


Welcome to the new world of fast internet. Yes now internet will become more faster by grid internet technologies. It's new technique for internet data transfer. Fifty years of innovation have increased the raw speed of individual computers by a factor of around one million, yet they are still far too slow for many challenging scientific problems.



Carpenter said, " The Grid will open up ... storage and transaction power in the same way that the Web opened up content." And just as the Internet connects various public and private networks, Cisco Systems' Bob Aiken said, "you're going to have multiple grids, multiple sets of middleware that people are going to choose from to satisfy their applications."

Now no need to user CD/DVD and pen drive. After grid technologies you can get upto 1GBPS and you can download movie in few minutes.



"Grid computing enables large-scale aggregation and integration of computing, storage, network and other information resources across organizational boundaries, but its use today is limited to experimental scientists analyzing large amounts of data," the report said. "In much the same way the Internet began as an effort to share computing resources among academic researchers before spreading to businesses and then to consumers, Grid computing will eventually be used by enterprises. More important, research into Grid computing will lead to the creation of software that will solve critical problems companies now face in building distributed inter-enterprise applications."

If you want to move big data from one palce to other palce there is no need to user CD / DVD or pen drive .Just upload your data in minutes and then download from other place in minutes.

past: Dial up internet

Present: Broadband internet

Future: Grid internet

Amsterdam seemed a logical choice for the first Global Grid Forum because not only is it the world's most densely cabled city, it was also home to the Internet Engineering Task Force's first international gathering in 1993. The IETF has served as a model for many of the GGF's activities: protocols, policy issues, and exchanging experiences.

The Grid Forum, a U.S.-based organization combined with eGrid - the European Grid Forum, and Asian counterparts to create the Global Grid Forum (GGF) in November, 2000.

The emergence of the Grid will change the entire perception the way people interact with each other online

The Global Grid Forum organizers said grid communities in the United States and Europe will now run in synch.

The Grid evolved from the early desire to connect supercomputers into " met computers " that could be remotely controlled. The word "grid" was borrowed from the electricity grid, to imply that any compatible device could be plugged in anywhere on the Grid and be guaranteed a certain level of resources, regardless of where those resources might come from.



But the real goal of the Grid is to work with the LHC in tracking down nature ’s most elusive particle, the Higgs boson. Predicted in theory but never yet found, it is supposed to be what gives matter mass. But even at optimum performance, The LHC will generate only a few thousand of the particles a year. Analysing the mountain of data is such a huge task that it will keep the Grid’s gargantuan capacity busy for years to come.

Scientific communities at the conference discussed what the compatibility standards should be, and how extensive the protocols need to be.

" Earlier this year, we predicted that Web services will take longer to gain acceptance in inter-enterprise use than anticipated because of unresolved problems with reliability, security and business models," said Eric Berg, managing director at PricewaterhouseCoopers' Global Technology Centre and editor-in-chief of the Forecast. " Our latest finding is that the development of Grid computing architectures, protocols and middleware by the research community is likely to lead directly to solutions that will overcome these obstacles and allow Web services deployment to proceed. "



Massive memory: Samsung, the world's top memory-chip maker, announced a $33 billion investment plan to add new production lines, aiming to more than treble its chip sales by 2012.

The plan, the biggest single investment project since Samsung entered the semiconductor business in 1974, was set to widen the gap with its smaller rivals while adding capacity in its relatively weak non-memory-chip division.

Samsung also said it was considering building new production facilities in the United States, although nothing was set.

Memory-chip makers have huge capital spending requirements as production moves to finer circuitry technology that makes chips smaller and helps cut manufacturing costs.

Analysts expect firm demand for memory chips over the coming years due to growing PC markets in emerging countries and booming sales of digital cameras and music players, which use flash memory chips.

भाईकाकाज लेटर टू मीरा ...

भाईकाकाज लेटर टू मीरा ...चाळीसएक वर्षांपूर्वी पु।ल। देशपांडे मुंबईत वरळीला राहात होते. त्याच परिसरात असलेल्या आदर्शनगर वसाहतीत वेगवेगळी मातृभाषा असणारी मुलं तिथल्या मैदानावर खेळताना आपापसात ज्या `इंग्लिश' (खरं तर त्या भाषेला `मिंग्लिश'च म्हणावं लागेल!) भाषेत बोलत, त्याच भाषेत पु.ल. देशपांडे यांनी त्याच कॉलनीत राहणारी श्रीमती सुनीताबाई यांची भाची मीरा ठाकूर- आत्ताची डॉ. मीरा नगरकर- हिला ती शालान्त परीक्षा उत्तीर्ण झाल्यावर पाठविलेलं हे पत्र! प्रथमच घेतलेल्या टाइपरायटरवर `बिब्लिकल मेथड' नं- म्हणजे `सर्च ऍंड दाऊ शॅल फाईंड- शोधा म्हणजे सापडेल' अशा पध्द्तीनं अक्षरपट्टीवरील मूळाक्षरं शोधत शोधत स्वत:च एका बोटानं टाईप केलेलं हे पत्र... पु.ल. देशपांडे यांच्या आजवरच्या प्रकाशित वाड:मयात नसलेलं!

How you know? i tell you how. Our Ponga Pandit Dreel Mashter (May his soul rest in peace!) said, `Right turn' and i righted my turn. So 25 marks. He said `left turn' and i lefted my turn. 25 marks. So here it became 50% Then he says `lef righ, lef and righ; like that fastam fast. i fastly and fastly do lef and righ. lef and righ. 10 marks more. 60% O.K.? Then he shouted `Staaaaand at ease' and I standed and `eased'. (If you do'nt know ask your Shivaji-Park Bhaikaka what is the meaning of ease. But don't ask him to ease." When i eased befor that Ponga Pandit Dreel Mashter he Shouted `you fool get out'. I getted out. a little wetted of course with in all 60%. But Your Mai Atte was a `bada scholar you know what. She get 198 out 200 in Maths. Really. Not bundle. And not in Dreel but in Maths. in S.S.C All you Thakur-lok Mathswala you see. Dadarwala Bhaikaka get 90% Mohan kaka 91%, your father 92% Chandukaka lost his 93% by only 60% but now he is the hightest because always in the airplane. What good joke no? Dinesh, Umesh, Sumitra, Shubha, Satish also. Of course sometime examtaker giving marks sleeping sleeping also. How much % you get in maths? Our time sala exam'ner never sleeping yaar. Always wake an exam and give small small marks. But once i made 90% marks in Math in fust standard Marathi Munisipaltywalla School, Gamdevi Bombay-6. Tell you how. Really i was getting 9%. I did some more Maths on my result card and draw one small circle before 9 and make 9% into 90%. Grandfather says - my grandfather not the teacher's grandfather - `Arey shubash - you get 90% marks in Maths, good good good. But you get 90 marks in Maths and total marks in all subject is how 89 only? How's that?' He shouted how's that so bigly that like cricket humpire I say `Out' and lift my hand with by mistake and little finger up. I was you know the bestest fass bowler in Marathi fuss Standard but was soon made Humpire by public demand. Then my Grandfather take Card to my that teacher (May his soul simply rust in peace.) Then dialogue. My Grandfather: Mr. Purshottam's Grandfather: Do total - do total. This boy (I was a boy that time)- gets 90 marks in Maths; and there is histry, there is Marathi there is jogrupy etc. etc. and you total 89? What are you doing in the school Mr. Teacher? Teaching or shaving?' Teacher Both. (G.F. Red with more more angriness.) But the teacher was right. He actually was doing both. Teaching and shaving. Part time in school and more part time in Saloon, opp. School. Then teacher looks at the Card. Starts laughing and laughing and laughing like villain in Hindi film when he pakdaos the she - hero only one in the room with her father gone to Darjiling to eat cold weather. jus like that yaar the teacher laughs. G.F. saying: What happened for laughing? Who is dancing here naked before you?' Hearing my G.F. say naked in the open class everybody laughs. Teacher shouted `Shut up' and the class shutted up. Then teacher to my G.F. Look here Mr. Purushottam's Gra fa, this is his original mark-shit. He turn 9% in 90%. Chor-ka baccha. If Purshya gets why 90 even 19 out of 100 I shall put Satyanarayana to the whole Bombay from Kulaba to Virar and give dinners to all on both the sides of the railway line. How's that?' This time i did not say out but actually ran out and never went to that school again. And here you actually make 79% and Sumitra 80% in S.S.C. yaa Allah Great. You must thank your mother and father for not teaching you and spending their time to teach other people's children and other people spending their money asking your F and M to teach them, that is not your F teaching your M or your M teaching your F, but their other people's children.So now you go to college kya? Good good. We were happy to know that all your uncles and aunties giving you cash and kind prizes. I tell your Mai-atte to give you prizes but she says Mitra has written that you know why? Because she does not need any more prizes . What Your Mai-atte 98% 420. 2% good for Dinesh only, who pleases her by taking bath every day when in Poona and once in 15 days in Bombay. But do'nt worry your this Bhaikaka loves you so much that you tell what you want I give you. Promise. Like you i also get a letter from Sailor Sunil from Vancouver. in vancouver it seems every sailor hasto write letters. may be Post Office is free. He Writes in English to Practise his English on us. Thank God. But if he learns boxing or karate who will he practice it on? Think.How is Girish? Our love to him. umesh as you know has joined the indian Air Force. When Sardarji join Air Force it is Hair Force and when Umesh joines Air Force it is Air Farce Do'nt, tell him this joke because when he becomes squander-leader or something like air-filled marshall he may throw a bomb on Roopali and break our earthen Kundi limbu tree. So congrats again and wish you many more 79% to 99% not like me but real, till one day some Prince-charming will pick you up as the 100% best wife for himself like i picked up your Mai-Atte. Yours very very very Affectionately.
