C. B.  aComputação distribuída e colaborativa aplicada à biomedicina com o FightAIDS@Home.h[electronic resource]  c2011  aDistributed computing systems are used for high performance computing tasks, taking advantage of join processing power of multiple independent computers, but they are interconnected by network. These high performance systems can be divided into two classes of distributed computing systems: computer cluster and grid computing. The FightAIDS@Home is a distributed system toward the search for solutions for the AIDS treatment, and this project is led by the Olson Laboratory, California. Nowadays, this project use computing resources of the Grid World Community Grid, which consist mostly of computers of ordinary users, using open and non-specific standard protocols and interfaces to ensure interoperability between different systems. These paper presents information from a case study about FightAIDS@Home and its implementation, using aspects of distributed systems such as grid computer and cloud computing to support implementation of collaborative computing.  aDistributed computing  aFightAIDS@Home  aGrid computing  aWorld Community Grid1 aSILVA, B.
