“Without grid computing it would not be possible to achieve ever shorter chip development cycles and increasingly complex structures at the same time.”
Karl Pomschar
CIO Infineon
"The workflow management tools enable us to utilize our compute power more efficiently… Accessing the services needed is as easy as putting a plug in a wall outlet.“ As soon as their thin client and user account are set up, newly hired developers will be online within minutes. So they have immediate access to the full compute power."
