Project: Charles Schwab

Description: IBM is working with Charles Schwab on Grid computing solutions at the financial services giant's headquarters in San Francisco. Their first Grid R&D project focused on maximizing processor efficiency and reduced the processing time on a financial application from more than four minutes to 15 seconds. The two companies are now looking to expand Grid research into other areas of Charles Schwab's business. Oren Leiman, managing director of advanced technology at Charles Schwab, said that open-source Grids have "the potential to greatly improve our quality of service and be a truly disruptive technology that can help us improve our business."
