ADDITIVE - Wolfram gridMathematica Software
gridMathematica brings together Mathematica, the world's leading environment for technical computing, with modern computing clusters and networks to meet the challenges of mathematics, engineering, science and finance. gridMathematica applies Mathematica technology, originally developed for single-processor machines, to complex, high-volume computations on clusters, multiprocessor machines and computing networks.
gridMathematica provides quick access to the preparation and execution of complex calculations. It has a high-level programming language, a large collection of fast and reliable mathematical algorithms and user-friendly constructs for parallel programming.
Typical areas of application for gridMathematica can be found in bioinformatics, the processing and analysis of large datasets, data mining and large calculations in physics, mathematics and the life sciences.
Every Mathematica single user or network license (from V8) has at least 4 x Mathematica compute kernels, so that virtually every user has “their own little grid” from the start. Newcomers to this topic can get started immediately and experienced cluster experts can intervene with the control via configuration elements. Thus, Mathematica can be extended to any number of kernels, for example to calculate on an HPC with 512 kernels.
Accelerating Processes with gridMathematica
gridMathematica implements numerous primitives of parallel programming and contains higher level commands for parallel execution of matrix operations, plotting and much more. gridMathematica comes with sample applications of numerous new popular programming approaches, such as parallel Monte Carlo simulation, visualization, data search and optimization. The implementation for all higher parallel processing commands are included as Mathematica sources, so they can serve as templates for users to develop their own parallel programs.
