eXludus announced the exclusive availability of SimpliGrid software to members of the Bioinformatics Organization (Bioinformatics.Org), an organization that develops and maintains computational resources to facilitate worldwide communications and collaborations between people of all educational and professional levels.

SimpliGrid software is the first product that simplifies the provisioning and use of clusters and grids for Microsoft Windows XP and Vista environments. Using a familiar "drag and drop" interface, Bio-IT researchers and scientists can structure grids and distribute processing tasks across systems. By optimizing computer infrastructure, SimpliGrid software enables users to get more work done in less time.

"Researchers and scientists tend to have significant computing capacity available in their labs, but struggle with the complexities of combining these systems to create effective clusters or grids," said Dale Geldart, Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing, eXludus Technologies. "With SimpliGrid software, there is no learning curve. You simply point-and-click. In a lab environment, full computing capacity may be easily applied to processing life sciences applications. We are very pleased that the Bioinformatics Organization has decided to make this solution available to its 25,000 members," Mr. Geldart added.

"We are proud to partner with eXludus in order to make SimpliGrid software available to our user community," said J.W. Bizzaro, President, Bioinformatics Organization. "This product enables researchers and scientists to better use computing infrastructures to obtain faster results in critically important fields of research," Mr. Bizzaro concluded.
