The forum is a chance for experienced Grid users and those new to the technology to ask questions, share information and generally discuss the latest news, views and reviews of the concepts, technologies and operations of grid within finance. Available to all users is:
- News: Captures valuable information and interest regarding the latest innovations and changes in Grid and High Performance Computing and the various vendors related to the technology.
