Abstract: Several computing technologies have emerged by the end of 20 th century due to the high speed Broadband internet with each having a number of applications in science, engineering, business, social systems, and governments. These technologies brought revolutionary changes in communications and computational processes. In- fact the advances in hardware, investigation of sophisticated rigorous mathematical algorithms are also responsible for greater shift in these developments. Some of these computing technologies are cluster, grid, and cloud, cloud-mobile. Multi-cloud, parallel, concurrent, distributed, DNA, mobile, high performance, utility, global cooperative, functional, ubiquitous, pervasive, exploratory, quantum, scalable computing, ubiquitous secure, computational grid, etc. In this paper we review uses and practical applications. Research into enhancing the technology, utility in various application areas have been growing at fast phase. It may stimulate further study of each and the convergence of all these technologies in dealing with logistic based problems of large dimensionality. Keywords: Cluster, Grid, Cloud, Distributed, DNA, Mobile, High Performance, Ubiquitous Pervasive, Quantum. I. INTRODUCTION computing clusters.

The use of clusters as computing platform also has several scientific and engineering applications. A simple computer cluster may be just connecting two personal computers, or may be a very fast supercomputer. A basic approach to building a cluster is that of a Beowulf [1] cluster which may be built with a few personal computers to produce a cost-effective computing. The first project conceptualized consisted of 133-node Stone Super computer [2]. The developers used Linux, the Parallel Virtual Machine toolkit. Thus computer clustering consist a number of readily available computing nodes (e.g. personal computers used as servers) via a fast local area network. The activities of the computing nodes are orchestrated by "clustering middleware". Cluster computing can also be described as a fusion of the field’s parallel, high- performance, distributed, and high-availability computing. This is a group of server machines installed in an organization’s data center forming a cluster, managing a Fig.1. significant number of the servers; then trying to keep them busy to justify the investment. This makes sense only for The usage of computer technologies incurs costs of organizations with a substantial ongoing requirement which runs applications on a cluster. Today’s researchers processors as well as other computer sub-systems (such as developed many other ways. One being a cluster created motherboard, memory, hard disks, and network cards). The using Windows HPC Server 2008 R2 containing standardization of network hardware and software protocols combination of on-premises servers, as traditional has also enhanced the confidence in using cluster computing. Since the invention of computers, there has been a Copyright @ 2015 IJSETR. All rights reserved. K. J. SARMA requirement for greater processing power. In-fact solving distinguished from conventional high performance scientific problems with large dimensionality and good computing systems, such as cluster computing. In a grid, precision encouraged the need to improve processing power. computers have each node set to perform a different A cluster designed to meet these needs is termed as a ―high application. performance‖ cluster. But all problems are not amenable to cluster solutions and depend on the communication costs of the algorithm used to solve the problem. There is a wide class of problems which can be solved with low expenditure and effectively using clusters. Parametric modeling is one area, where in ―embarrassingly parallel‖ problems such as brute-force cracking of encryption keys is made use of. As we grow more dependent, the cost of failures is increasing dramatically. Combined with computer systems’ reputation for poor reliability, meaning that there is a great impetus to develop and deploy cluster computer solutions; to ensure that computer systems can be used effectively, i.e., twenty-four hours a day. A cluster designed to meet these needs is a ―high availability‖ cluster. One feature of cluster systems is a gradual degradation, whereby a system fails slowly but with prior warning, so that remedial action can be taken in time to avoid a catastrophe. Thus we can take an action by placing the nodes of the clusters in separate physical locations. This means even when Fig.2. artificial or natural disasters like power failure, earthquake, Grid computers also tend to be more heterogeneous and fire, flood and riots occur computer systems can continue to geographically dispersed than cluster computers[4]. operate. Some of the Advantages of Cluster Computing are Sometimes a single grid will be dedicated to a particular Manageability: A cluster with large number of application, depending on the nature and complexity of components will be combined to work as a single entity application. Thus Grids are often constructed with general- which means management becomes easy. purpose grid middleware software libraries. Grid sizes can be Single System Image: Here the user of the cluster gets a quite large [5].

This is in contrast to the Programmability Issues: This may be because the traditional notion of a supercomputer, which has many components being different in terms of software from each processors connected by a local high-speed computer bus [6]. other.

Commercial activities are also affected by the new advancements. Traditional commercial activities are changed and modified with the passage of time. Firstly, the age of E-Commerce arrived, then M-Commerce. Now, after E-Commerce and M-Commerce, the age of Ultimate Commerce is arrived. Any time/ Always/ Anywhere service providing is the key to this ultimate or ubiquitous commerce. This paper studies the concept of ubiquitous computing and its adaption to commerce with new issues associated. Keywords- Ubiquitous computing, Ubiquitous commerce. I. INTRODUCTION Ubiquitous commerce, also referred to as „u-commerce‟ is a new paradigm that broadens and extends the Internet usage in today‟s environment. With the rapid development of ubiquitous computing and mobile communication technologies, the traditional business model is changing drastically. As a logical extension of e-commerce and m-commerce, Watson proposed the concept of ubiquitous commerce (u-commerce) in 2000. As the next generation business model, it immediately gained a lot of attention. U-commerce emerges as a continuous, seamless stream of communication, content and services exchanged among businesses, suppliers, employees, customers, and products. It will enable interactions and transactions to happen anywhere and at any time without being constrained to stay connected through power and telephone lines.

  • Ubiquitous Computing, Virtual Worlds, and the Displacement of Property Rights
    Ubiquitous Computing, Virtual Worlds, and the Displacement of Property Rights M. ScoT BOONE* Abstract: Examining one emerging technology, virtual worlds, may provide us with insight about another emerging technology, ubiquitous computing. The rapid increase in both the popularity and economic value of virtual worlds has resulted in a conflict over whether players in these worlds have any property rights with respect to virtual world objects associated with their avatars. A close examination however reveals that even if such rights exist, they can be overridden through the combined use of contract and technology. This observation may in turn provide an insight about the future of real world property. The emerging technology of ubiquitous computing shares technological characteristics with virtual worlds such that ubiquitous computing would make a displacement of property rights in real world objects possible in the same way that virtual world technology makes such a displacement possible for potential property rights in virtual world objects.

  • Impact of the New Generation of X86 on the Server Market
    Impact of the New Generation of x86 on the Server Market Gartner RAS Core Research Note G002012320, George J. Weiss, Jeffrey Hewitt, 3 June 2010, R3598 07042011 Intel and OEMs have driven performance and reliability of the Intel Xeon 7500 processor series (code-named Nehalem-EX) to a level overlapping what Gartner judges to be about 80% of the RISC/Itanium function/feature set, but at a much lower price point. The result will cause increased server technology consolidation toward a bipolar distribution: x86-based platforms and one primary market-share-leading RISC technology (IBM Power), complementing the prevailing legacy of mainframes. Key Findings • A bipolar technology distribution of one strong RISC (Power) and x86 will drive at least 70% to 80% of the market’s total revenue, while other technologies subsist with minor single-digit revenue share; beyond this decade, a unipolar market will exist in which x86 technology becomes the standard, predominant server technology. • Unix has receded by $4 billion in the past three years. Migrations from Unix to Linux or Windows continue, according to Gartner client discussions. • Users continue to optimize costs (such as through virtualization, lower hardware costs, open-source software and cloud computing) primarily on x86. • Of the three non-x86 technologies, IBM’s has had a recent track record of sustained market share growth. Recommendations • Calculate an approximate x86 total cost of ownership (TCO) equivalence or line item cost analysis for comparison as if these applications were to be hosted on x86 for similar performance/availability, when considering Unix upgrades. • Make the comparison to an approximately equivalent x86 configuration when evaluating price quotes.
