Sažetak
Scientific applications over the years have been executed on traditional high performance computing (HPC) systems like supercomputers or clusters and high throughput computing (HTC) systems like Grids. With large amounts of computing resources traditional HPC has been used by many organizations to help resolve a variety of problems. Although these systems were usually designed to address a specific problem, more and more SMEs and even university departments started to take advantage of general purpose HPC systems. With Cloud Computing, as new emerging technology, scientists, engineers, system administrators and developers have been considering HPC Cloud environment in order to exploit of what Cloud Computing has to offer them. We will present the economic and technical benefits of running scientific applications in Cloud Computing environment and some key challenges especially for communication intensive tightly coupled scientific applications.
