Opt1 1. Between thirty-two and sixty-four processor cluster installed for use with ESMF codes at MIT. Cluster nodes to use P4, 1.5GHz (or higher) with 256 or 512MB of RDRAM (800MHz or 1066MHz) or DDRSDRAM 266MHz) per node. High-speed, parallel application interconnect, to use Myrinet (PC164B or PC164C). Commodity network, using switched 10/100 Ethernet, will be used for general-purpose traffic. The cluster facility at MIT has been extended to included an additional set of thirty-two Pentium 4, 2.26GHz, 512MB RDRAM nodes interconnected with Myrinet PCI64B hardware. Details of the facility hardware and information on getting access and on using the system can be found here. The cluster web site includes documentation and instruction on how to run ESMF JMC code L on the cluster.
