GPUGRID is a scientific project of the University of Pompeu Fabra to simulate ion transport using the technology of distributed computing .
technology
The project today relies on the computing capacities of the graphics processors from the manufacturer Nvidia . There are applications for Windows and 64-bit Linux . Originally, under the name PS3GRID , the project also included the option of performing calculations on the PlayStation 3 . This project was discontinued after Sony discontinued the ability to install Linux on the PlayStation 3.
