Grid computer farm

Grid supercomputers. Fish-eye lens view of a room packed with computers, forming a " PC farm" with immense processing power. These computers are at CERN, the European Particle Physics laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland. They are being prepared to accept and analyse data from the new Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The LHC will smash particles together in an effort to find their constituents, and will generate millions of gigabytes of data. This is also being used as a test run for The Grid, a network of computers that can share processing power. This means that a standard desktop computer connected to The Grid can be used to perform powerful calculations

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the impressive grid computer farm at CERN, the renowned European Particle Physics laboratory located near Geneva, Switzerland. Through a fish-eye lens perspective, we are presented with a room brimming with an array of computers that collectively form a PC farm boasting immense processing power. These cutting-edge machines have been meticulously prepared to receive and analyze data generated by the groundbreaking Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The LHC's primary objective is to collide particles in order to unravel their fundamental constituents. This ambitious undertaking generates an astonishing amount of data, amounting to millions of gigabytes. Consequently, this serves as an ideal opportunity for testing The Grid - a revolutionary network of interconnected computers capable of sharing processing power. The significance lies in its potential: even a standard desktop computer linked to The Grid can perform complex calculations typically reserved for supercomputers. As such, this image not only highlights the remarkable technology harnessed within Europe but also emphasizes the vast capabilities offered by The Grid. With its fusion of science and technology on full display, this photograph from Science Photo Library encapsulates the essence of innovation at CERN while offering viewers a glimpse into the future possibilities enabled by collaborative computing networks like The Grid.
