== Math Cluster ==
The Math Department has an experimental computational cluster. It works fine for computation, but theThe main purpose is for configuring and testing distributed computing applications so that they can be run on larger clusters. However, since our recent upgrades, the computational cluster is very fast for certain workloads.
 
The cluster is 4064 machines with i7 processors. The first 3254 are 6th-generation processors, and the last 810 are 7th generation processors.
 
Jobs can be sent to all nodes in the cluster, or a subset of the nodes.
 
At this time, the cluster is working with ssh MPI, Pari/gp using MPI, and Mathematica. We're in the process of getting it working with other applications including MPI, Matlab, Maple, and Magma. Many applications can be used for 'Pleasingly Parallel' workloads by running independent simultaneous programs using pdsh. Macaulay2 is available on all of the nodes for this purpose. Check back on this page because support is rapidly evolving.
 
Also, if you can get your own application running on the cluster, please write up a short description ofand howput thatit wason donethis andwiki! sendYou itcan toedit me,these humphrey@cornell.edupages, soand thatcreate wea canpage includewith ityour instructions, linked infrom ourthis documentationpage.
 
First Step: Setting up your [[Cluster SSH access]], including testing your access with pdsh commands.
 
Testing your access with [[pdsh commands]].
 
Next: Launching [[Mathematica Remote Kernels]].
 
MPI: Trying out the MPI 'Hello World' program, which is a step to running many types of parallel jobs. [[MPI Hello World]]
 
Here is some info on running remote workers in Magma: [[Magma Cluster]] This is a work in progress since we don't have a nice, working example yet.
