HPC-Grid allows users to distribute computations across the nodes of a network of workstations, a supercomputer or across the CPUs of a multiprocessor machine. This allows for the handling of problems that are not tractable on a single machine because of memory limitations or because it would simply take too long. HPC-Grid is simple to set up. Users start a server process on each machine on a network and the grid will self-assemble as each node automatically detects the other nodes that are present. HPC-Grid also integrates into existing job scheduling systems like PBS. In order to perform distributed computations, HPC-Grid offers an MPI-like message passing API as well as a set of high-level parallelization commands.
