- IBM has teamed with scientists at Scripps Research Institute in southern California on a project that will combine the power of thousands of small computers, to each attack tiny pieces of a larger medical puzzle that might otherwise require a supercomputer to solve
- The project will allow scientists do in months what it would otherwise take years to complete
- The grid computing program breaks down large computing problems into thousands of smaller tasks, assigns them to individual devices and then compiles the results
