Modular computing is a generic philosophy that relies on "modules". These modules each have a specific function in the overall system. This is advantageous in many scenarios because it allows for modules to be re-used without re-creating them.
Modular computing is seen at both the hardware and software levels.

"Distributed" or "grid" computing in general is a special type of parallel computing, it is advanced in the means of using distributed computing.
Cloud computing is better then normal grid computing as its cheaper to buy, use and maintain. Cloud computing can offer web hosting also which grid computing can not.
Cloud computing or grid computing depends on the task at hand. If you want to focus on a single enormous task, then go with grid computing. Cloud computing is more for multitasking.
Soft computing differs from conventional (hard) computing in that, unlike hard computing, it is tolerant of imprecision, uncertainty, partial truth, and approximation. In effect, the role model for soft computing is the human mind.
The basic computing with the computer.
Business computing is done at work; personal computing is done at home.
