parallel computation
 

does anyone know how to set up a parallel computation with two computers?

does parallel computaion must using two the same computers[the same cpu rate ] to deal with?

ask if there are several procedures we can follow. thank for help~

where are you from? american . i don't think anyone will call you an american if you can not even conduct a parallel computation.

you can follow the user guide of the FLUENT comercial software

parallel computation run; involving two different computers is not that easy for first time users, and very important everybody is not extraordinary like you!

I'm also trying to achieve the same. So, how?

Re: parallel computation
 

You may try to consider your two computers as a (small) cluster and manage it with MPI.

Ok, this is more details on I want to achieve. I have three computers, networked together. All three are running Windows XP (and yeah, i know XP is not the best option to do this). After I have set everything up, I ran star on one of the pc and here's the last portion of the message I received on the starlaunch window:

C:\WINNT\system32> set PNP_WATCH=0 C:\WINNT\system32> pushd \\acer3\pnp_dir_2005-04-07_16-50-26 Z:\> "\\acer3\star322\lib\loader\star.exe"

Z:\> popd process 2 on Vtc-tr-004 exited without calling MPIFinalize Sending kill commands to launched processes process 0 on Acer3 exited without calling MPIFinalize process 1 on Vtc-tr-002 exited without calling MPIFinalize pnp_dir_2005-04-07_16-50-26 was deleted successfully. PNP: Shutdown [2005-04-07-16:52:47] Execution aborted by request (SIGABRT) after 141 seconds (TOTAL ELAPSED TIME).

What may be the problem? I also shut down the antivirus and Windows Firewall on all three and yet, the problem still prevails. What's next?

All helps are highly appreciated!

What about HPC? Did you try to install it?
