VDT is parallel computing middleware - you install it on multiple hosts (with each host having their own certificates). You can then find a problem that can be solved or at least tractable using parallel computing. You could try searching for problems that use MPI facilities (either in Fortran, C++ or some other language) - just Google for it, then create programs that use MPI facilities, then submit them to the Globus gatekeeper program. -- Paolo Alexis Falcone [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
