Parallel Computing on a PC Cluster
The tremendous advance in computer technology in the past decade has made it possible to achieve the performance of a supercomputer on a very small budget. We have built a multi-CPU cluster of Pentium PC capable of parallel computations using the Message Passing Interface (MPI). We will discuss the configuration, performance, and application of the cluster to our work in physics.
متن کاملFinding Protein Binding Sites Using Volunteer Computing Grids
This paper describes initial work in the development of the DNA@Home volunteer computing project, which aims to use Gibbs sampling for the identification and location of DNA control signals on full genome scale data sets. Most current research involving sequence analysis for these control signals involve significantly smaller data sets, however volunteer computing can provide the necessary comp...
متن کاملVolunteer Computing on Clusters
Clusters typically represent a homogeneous, well maintained pool of high-end computation resources. This makes them particularly attractive for volunteer computing, where unused compute cycles are utilized for scientific guest applications. Cluster nodes are not idle as often as public PCs, but they are frequently underutilized while actively executing parallel applications. Hence, fully exploi...
متن کاملToward Parallel Environmental Transport Modeling on Computing Grids
In this paper the authors present a methodology to pursue parallel environmental transport computations on computing grids. A Natural Coordinate System (NCS) is introduced to transform the two-dimensional environmental transport problem into a series of onedimensional advection systems coupled with transverse and longitudinal diffusion. Then appropriate numerical methods are deployed to solve t...
متن کاملVolunteer computing
The explosive growth of interest in platform-independent programming languages for the WorldWide Web , such as Sun Microsystems' Java, is opening exciting new possibilites in parallel computing. This thesis will present and investigate the idea of volunteer computing, which will allow people to volunteer their computers' processing power towards solving a large parallel problem by simply visiti...
