he European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN) is working on a new super fast Internet infrastructure called Grid. CERN, the particle physics center based in Geneva that created the web, has built “the grid,” a replacement for the Internet is expected to be 10,000 times faster than the regular broadband speed.
The Grid is a service for sharing computer power and data storage capacity over the Internet. The Grid goes well beyond simple communication between computers, and aims ultimately to turn the global network of computers into one vast computational resource.
The institutions behind the grid for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) successfully completed a challenge to sustain a continuous data flow of on average 600MB per second for 10 days between the CERN and seven sites in Europe and North America. ReadMore
