I have been using Sage for a fairly intense computational biology project. I have been very pleased with the software, but when it was finely time to run my computations I learned that my hardware was grossly inadequate. I have since gained access to a computer cluster (256 G5 xserves) that seems adequate to handle my need, but the cluster manager asked about the ability of Sage to be distributed across processors. I am writing to possibly get answers for him. The manager and I reviewed the information about DSage, but questions remain. Specifically, is Sage (or the modules I am using within Sage: R, Numpy, SQLalchemy) capable of being "fully distributed", or is the grid computing (i.e. "coarse distribution"?) the only option.
If not, is there an alternative that can be "fully distributed"? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
