'''Urgent Computingcomputing''' is a new and evolving field made possible by the improved fidelity and utility of [[High-performance_computing | high-performance computing]] to decision making. It refers to the concept of usingproviding prioritized and immediate access on regular [[Supercomputers]] and [[Grid_computing | Grids]] for emergency computations such as severe weather prediction during matters of immediate concern. Applications that provide decision makers with information during critical emergencies getcannot prioritizedwaste time waiting in the job queues and need access to [[Computational_resource | compute resources]] usingUrgentas Computing.soon as possible.
