Physicists working on the STAR experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory have turned to Network.com to run simulations using its StarSim application. STAR tracks the thousands of particles produced by ion collisions at the laboratory's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, searching for quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a form of matter that is believed to have last existed just after the Big Bang, at the dawn of the universe. The STAR experiment involves accumulating and analyzing millions of images of ion collisions, a process that is both computing-intensive and data-intensive.

AMD is well aware of the extraordinary business benefits of grid computingthe company has been running its own high-performance computing (HPC) grid for more than a decade. Recently, to ensure the timely delivery to market of a new product line, AMD turned to the Sun Grid Utility at Sun's Network.com Web site to quickly access the additional compute power required for a simulation program. Access to the Sun Grid, priced at $1 per CPU hour, gives AMD the flexible capacity it needs, when its production schedule requires itwithout additional investment in hardware. |

Through Sun Grid Compute Utility, AB was able to perform the compute-intensive data
research to develop millions of new genomic assays in a matter of days rather than months. In addition,
because the company only had to purchase the number of hours required, at a rate of $1 per CPU hour, it
avoided an investment in infrastructure that would have cost the company hundreds of thousands of
dollars. |
