Calculating PI using F# on a (Virtual) Super Computer

Here's a great example of grid computing. The implementation uses Alchemi, an open source grid computing framework that allows you to painlessly aggregate the computing power of intranet and Internet-connected machines into a virtual supercomputer (computational grid) and to develop applications to run on the grid.

This frameworks creates virtual computers from a grid of ordinary desktops, and hopefully will help soon me on a long awaiting project: an operations research highly intensive data project.
