Part of the Software applications glossary: Distributed computing is a model in which components of a software system are shared among multiple computers to improve efficiency and performance.
Grid computing is a computing model involving a distributed architecture of large numbers of computers connected to solve a complex problem.In the grid computing model, servers or personal computers run independent tasks and are loosely linked by the Internet or low-speed networks.here is a great deal of disagreement over the difference between distributed computing and grid computing. According to some, grid computing is just one type of distributed computing. The SETI project, for example, characterizes the model itâs based on as distributed computing.
