gridMathematica Features
gridMathematica is an integrated extension system for increasing the power of your Mathematica licenses. gridMathematica Server gives Mathematica users a shared pool of at least sixteen additional network-enabled Mathematica computation kernels for running distributed parallel computations over multiple CPUs.
There is no need to change your existing parallel code—just make gridMathematica Server available, and parallel programs can automatically use the additional CPU power. Whether you have a massive parallel task or just want a little boost, you can quickly grab some extra power when you need it.
Local Hardware
All additional kernels run on each
user's own machine
High-Performance Cluster
A dedicated cluster of machines running
a specialized grid-management tool
Ad Hoc Grid
A network of different machines
available for parallel computation
gridMathematica Provides:
Grid deployment of all of Mathematica's functionality, including its state-of-the art, super-fast numerical routines, image processing, statistics and finance capabilities. It even supports remote access to GPUs and the distributed on-the-fly generation and compilation of parallel C code. If you can do it in Mathematica, you can do it over the grid.
A high-level parallel programming language, which automates much of the communication, synchronization, data transfer and error recovery that usually makes grid computing so difficult to set up. With automatically serialized data transfer, you can send any structured data and programs to remote machines without needing to configure a common filesystem.
