IBM's distributed computing initiative has taken another step forward with the creation of a computing grid between the University of Pennsylvania and four hospitals to develop advanced methods of breast cancer diagnosis.
The University of Pennsylvania Grid is an open-source distributed computer network that delivers resources and processing power as a utility-like service over the internet.
