High performance Linux clusters with OSCaliforniaR, Rocks, openMosix, and MPI
To the outside world, a ""supercomputer"" appears to be a single system. In fact, it's a cluster of computers that share a local area network and have the ability to work together on a single problem as a team. Many businesses used to consider supercomputing beyond the reac...
