Definition: " A computational grid is a hardware and software infrastructure that provides dependable, consistent, pervasive, and inexpensive access to high-end computational capabilities." -- Dr Ian Foster (Argonne National Laboratory & University of Chicago) explains in his article "What is the Grid?
