Scientific Applications of Cloud– Health care, Geoscience and Biology, Business and Consumer Applications - CRM and ERP
Scientific Applications of Cloud – Health care, Geoscience and Biology, Business and Consumer Applications - CRM and ERP Scientific applications are a sector that is increasingly using cloud computing systems and technologies. Cloud computing systems meet the needs of different types of applications in the scientific domain: high-performance computing (HPC) applications, high-throughput computing (HTC) applications, and data-intensive applications. For instance, the MapReduce programming model provides scientists with a very simple and effective model for building applications that need to process large datasets. Therefore it has been widely used to develop data-intensive scientific applications. Problems that require a higher degree of flexibility in terms of structuring of their computation model can leverage platforms such as Aneka, which supports MapReduce and other programming models. We now discuss some interesting case studies in which Aneka has been used. Application in H...
