I'm interested in getting started with some grid computing on the .NET platform. Can ayone recommend "getting started" resources and / or sample applications with source code? Thanks...
edit: By "grid computing" I mean distributed processing of complex problems across multiple machines...
If by "grid computing" you mean distributed processing of complex problems across multiple machines, take a look at the Parallel Computing tools center at Microsoft, and perhaps also Windows Azure as a compute resource for large scale "elastic computing".
If by "grid computing" you mean an interactive columnar display of data on a WinForm, that's not "grid computing". That's just a datagrid control.
If you are looking for a distributed computing framework for .NET, you might check out CloudIQ Platform from Appistry. It allows you to write code in .NET and distribute your applications amongst many servers automatically, providing dynamic scale. It also provides automatic failover in the event of a hardware failure.
If you go to the Community links, there are free downloads and some coding examples.
