Parallel and Distributed Systems Laboratory
Both in industry and in academic research, clusters of computers are often used for solving computationally intensive problems. This computing method is often referred to as "distributed computing". Parallel as opposed to sequential programs are most effective for the cluster environment. Research in distributed computing is aimed at realizing a visual environment for parallel programs to be executed either on a cluster or in the Grid.

Description
Our mission is to provide easy-to-use software development solutions for the end users in the field of high performance computing and for the emerging distributed computing platforms based on Grid technologies. LPDS aims at developing further the new generation of parallel and distributed computing methods in the frame of joint national and international R&D projects as well as enabling these achievements to a wider community including academic institutes, universities, and industrial companies. Our laboratory addresses the propagation of the state-of-the-art Grid technologies at technical forums and open days besides the teaching of parallel and distributed systems at universities.
