Beowulf Cluster Computing with Linux, Second Edition
|
Tuesday September 21 2004 @ 08:08AM EDT views: 255
Linux Journal: Beowulf Cluster Computing with Linux provides a well-balanced discussion that covers the basic design and construction of a Beowulf cluster, as well as how to manage and effectively use one. The breadth of the discussion is the book's only weakness—a lack of depth. The book touches on several topics from networking to programming, but you're going to need other sources on each subject for in-depth discussions. This book can help you define what other resources you need, though.

Beowulf founder: Linux is ready for high-performance computing
|
Tuesday September 14 2004 @ 08:15PM EDT views: 210
SearchEnterpriseLinux.com: Beowulf is 10 years old this month and Donald Becker is a proud parent. Becker created Beowulf clustering while at NASA, providing a less costly but equally effective vehicle (PC clusters) for doing complex mathematical calculations. Previously, that task could only be run on supercomputers. Becker has been instrumental in helping that Linux-based high performance computing software grow up. He founded Scyld Computing in 1998 to redesign the Beowulf software and make it commercially usable. About a year ago, Scyld was acquired by hardware vendor Penguin Computing of San Francisco. Today, Becker is chief technology officer (CTO) of Penguin, which provides integrated hardware/software systems that offer scalable performance. In this interview, Becker discusses the legacy and future of Beowulf and Linux's place in the high-performance computing landscape.
