Direction of Development and Feature

According to the data from several research and education institutes, we can see that cluster and grid computing system with Linux OS and message passing programs to perform high-performance computing or parallel computing is practical. Personal PC Clusters can make Higg-performance Computing and Parallel Computing related technology and application widely available. This really helps to develop all applicable field. User can spend less time and money to build Linux-based Parallel Computing System. Then use it on his professional field to get good result. Our research topics are mainly Linux OS Grid Computing and Cluster Computing. We also extend our research to the high-performance cluster computing and its applications, which is one of the most popular topic in Computer Science. Directions are research and application related to computational Grid, data Grid, and architecture, performance, information monitoring of PC cluster systems. We already build several Linux-based PC cluster systems and grid environments and research how to use PC cluster systerms and grid environments to achieve high-performance computing. We also participate in the following large scale research plan:
+National Science Council “Pisces: A P2P Meta-Grid System”.
+National Science Council “Medical Grid – E-health System based on Grid”
+National Center for High-Performance Computing “Taiwan UniGrid Grid Computing platform construction and research”
