(Part of) My Beowulf Cluster

These 6 boards bearing i3 540 (quite old procie) are part of Beowulf cluster I am working on. I borrowed them from my professors (here and here). The cluster will include 10 more E7500.

The cluster will do computation on multi-dimensional Monte Carlo integral, in which more processing nodes will allow more data samples and faster results. It utilizes basic cluster thingies: GNU/Linux (WattOS and SalixOS) for the operating systems; NFS, OpenSSH, some home-brewed scripts for management; and OpenMPI as parallel programming library.


She's majestic, isn't she?

She's gonna be my girlfriend for quite some time :)
