The Application of Beowulf-Class Computing to Computational Electromagnetics
Current computational developments at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) are motivated by the NASA/JPL goal of reducing payload in future space missions while increasing mission capability through miniaturization of active and passive sensors, analytical instruments and communication systems.
Optimization of a Parallel Ocean General Circulation Model
One of the principal roles of the ocean in the global heat balance is storage of heat, which moderates seasonal extremes and leads to the contrast between ocean and continent temperatures.
An Assessment of a Beowulf System for a Wide Class of Analysis and Design Software
A typical Beowulf system, such as the machine at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), may comprise 16 nodes interconnected by 100 base T Fast Ethernet. Each node may include a single Inter Pentium Pro 200 MHz microprocessor, 128 MBytes of DRAM, 2.5 GBytes of IDE disk, and PCI bus backplane, and an assortment of other devices.
