ladi_d81: Can anyone use stupid people terms to describe Grid Computing?
I have a group project I am putting together about Grid Computing. However, even with all the info I have found, I have no idea what they are talking about because even the shortest definition uses technologicalish terms. I am dumb when it comes to computers, so anyone who actually knows that it is and can describe it to me like a 5 year old would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Grid computing is taking a large problem, splitting it into many small pieces, and running the pieces on a lot of different computers. Then the answers are put back together to get the final answer.

That is as simple as it gets.
Of course it is a simple analogy and it breaks down quickly under scrutiny but it gets the point accross.
