Hi,

sObject casting when you use generic sobject and then convert that into a concrete sobject.
example:- 
Map<String, Schema.SObjectType> gd = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();
Schema.SobjectType oType = gd.get(‘account’);
account object_instance = (account)oType.newSObject();
Thanks.

Hi Ashish, 

Adding in to previous response. If you need dynamic Objec casting you may refer:
