Beowulf cluster
text:
A Beowulf cluster is a computer cluster of what are normally identical, commodity-grade computers networked into a small local area network with libraries and programs installed which allow processing to be shared among them. The result is a high-performance parallel computing cluster from inexpensive personal computer hardware. Beowulf originally referred to a specific computer built in 1994 by Thomas Sterling and Donald Becker at NASA. They named it after the Old English epic poem, Beowulf. No
