APPLICATIONS ON HIGH PERFORMANCE CLUSTER COMPUTERS (original) (raw)

Abstract

The development, application and commercialization of cluster computer systems have escalated dramatically over the last several years. Driven by a range of applications that need relatively low-cost access to high performance computing systems, cluster computers have reached worldwide acceptance and use. A cluster system consists of commercial-off-the-shelf hardware coupled to (generally) open source software.
