Dear Ed
I was we have a 148 processor beowolf cluster ;-) I was thinking of
having a go at developing a distributed version of relax... are you ok
with that or do you have plans of your own?
The general idea was to have scripts look almost as they are but
1. have a command to register multi processor handlers
2. have a command to add machines and parameters to the multi processor pool
3. add code to the generic functions/or replace the generic funcntions
if the multiprocessing is setup to batch up components of calculations
and pass them out to the compute servers
4. add code to multiplex the results back together again
obviously this would just be a prototype at first but it could be rather
useful
regards
gary
